Experience Nature Through Art at Atelier Zephyr's Exhibition

A unique art exhibition featuring the works of illustrator Atelier Zephyr will take place at Shibuya's Akushu on the third floor, specifically in the distinctive rental space known as the "Kaidanshitsu (Tamariba)." This exhibition, titled "Saku Bou - Daily, Creatures," is scheduled from June 2 to June 14, 2026.

A Glimpse into Atelier Zephyr's Artistic Journey

Atelier Zephyr, born in Aichi Prefecture, has been active in the art scene since around 2010. The artist began by creating three-dimensional works using glass mini bottles and watercolor pencil illustrations. Currently, Atelier Zephyr employs digital illustrations and acrylic paints to depict various creatures and natural landscapes. The artworks focus on intriguing moments that highlight the charm and resilience of familiar creatures in their environment, capturing both the strength and the fragility of nature.

In this exhibition, Atelier Zephyr aims to represent the transition of time through the changing phases of the moon while drawing inspiration from the local fauna observed in Tokyo's Shibuya district. Guests can expect to see circular canvas paintings displayed on the walls of the gallery, designed to create a welcoming and warm atmosphere that encourages visitors to sit comfortably on the stairs and immerse themselves in the art. Atelier Zephyr expresses a desire for attendees to appreciate the warmth of wooden elements and the soothing light streaming through windows as they enjoy the exhibition.
