Nori Okawa's Exhibition 'Shokutaku' Opens This November at YUGEN Gallery Fukuoka

An exciting art exhibition featuring Nori Okawa titled 'Shokutaku' is set to open on November 29 and run until December 11, 2025, at YUGEN Gallery Fukuoka. This event marks the first time the exhibition will be showcased in Fukuoka, following its acclaimed debut at YUGEN Gallery in Tokyo's Minato ward in October, which garnered significant attention from art enthusiasts and collectors.

A Deep Dive into Nori Okawa's Artistic Vision

Nori Okawa, a graduate of the Graphic Design Department at Tama Art University, stepped into the art scene in 2019 after working in video production. Since then, he has collaborated with various high-profile brands, working on visual content for magazines and advertisements. He has recently contributed to the global event 'Miu Miu Club Tokyo' and created a mural for the Osaka-Kansai Expo.

The upcoming exhibition at YUGEN Gallery Fukuoka introduces a fresh collection of works inspired by the theme of self-formation through encounters with 'otherness.' Okawa's art delves into the interaction between different values, signifying how these interactions can shape one's identity in a profound manner. This thematic exploration promises a visually and conceptually engaging experience for visitors.

During his exhibition in Tokyo, Okawa's work attracted vibrant crowds and resulted in several pieces being sold, leading to heightened anticipation for the Fukuoka venue, where he will showcase newly created artworks as part of this traveling exhibition.

Exclusive Merchandise and Special Gifts

Attendees will have the opportunity to purchase a variety of original merchandise that reflects Okawa's artistic universe. Unique items including tote bags featuring badges, a full-color zine spanning 52 pages, and a series of limited-edition stickers will be available for eager fans. Since these items are produced in limited quantities, art lovers are encouraged to visit the exhibition early to secure their favorites.

Additionally, as a token of appreciation, visitors who participate in an on-site survey will receive a limited-edition coaster designed by Okawa. This coaster, exclusive to the Fukuoka exhibition, serves as a perfect memento of the event and an invitation to delve deeper into Okawa's mesmerizing world.
