nca | nichido contemporary art is pleased to present “Paludes”, the first solo exhibition of Taiwanese young artist Chih-Hung LIU’s in Japan. Liu shows works that seem to capture bits from his everyday life, surrounding environment, and landscapes and events he encounters during his journeys, and spin stories out of those motifs while interweaving with his personal lyricism. His expressive style does not include painting only but stretches to different media, such as installations, videos, writings, and sculpture according to the artwork’s theme. This series takes shape from the artist wandering in Yangmingshan National Park, located within easy reach of his studio, in the suburbs of Taipei, and the sketches he drew along the path. This exhibition is the artist’s first solo show in Japan, and presents a total of 25 new paintings, including large-scale pieces, and a few ceramic sculptures. Liu’s works will also be shown at our booth during the Tokyo Art Fair which will take place from March 16to19 at the Tokyo International Forum. We look forward to seeing you.
