Exploring Conal Kelly's Unique Art at UltraSuperNew KURA Exhibition

Unveiling 'Body Language' at UltraSuperNew KURA

Art enthusiasts are invited to experience an extraordinary intersection of surrealism and everyday life at the upcoming exhibition titled 'Body Language,' hosted by UltraSuperNew KURA, starting September 26. The exhibition highlights the works of Conal Kelly, a talented graphic designer and creative director originally from the United Kingdom and now based in Tokyo.

A Deep Dive into Body Language

The exhibition promises to delve into the themes of bodily presence, digital culture, and the constructs of modern society. Through a compelling narrative, Kelly reconstructs fragments of past imagery to create new stories that resonate with contemporary experiences. His graphic art juxtaposes the surreal with the banal, prompting visitors to reflect on the contradictions in today's internet-driven culture.

The show marks Conal's first solo exhibition, showcasing not only graphic art but also apparel, reflecting his personal and professional evolution over the last decade. Each piece serves as a vivid representation of the modern sensibilities shaped by the rapid changes in today's digital landscape.
