gallery UG is pleased to present “Don’t worry,” a solo exhibition by Takaoki Tajima, to be held from Sunday, June 15 to Tuesday, June 24, 2025, at ART GALLERY 1 on the 10th floor of Daimaru Tokyo.
Takaoki Tajima has expanded his practice from sculpture to painting, embracing a free and multifaceted style that defies conventional frameworks. His works are highly regarded for their distinctive approach—transforming pessimistic themes with a touch of humor. Within bold, colorful compositions, enigmatic characters with mysterious expressions and movements captivate viewers and stir complex, indescribable emotions.
In 2020, Tajima held a solo exhibition in New York and has since participated in international art fairs in New York, Vancouver, and Taiwan. His work continues to garner attention both in Japan and overseas.
This exhibition, “Don’t worry,” presents a series of new works infused with surreal and unconventional humor. We invite you to experience the singular, imaginative world of Takaoki Tajima.
