Photographer Ittetsu Matsuoka and a member of the Shiga Prefecture welfare facility "Yamanami Kobo"
Four unique authors: Yoshida Rikuto, Ino Yuki, Oji Yuya, and NANA.
Each of these artists, living their own unique sensibilities, met and interacted through a single work.
Photography and painting.
When people with different languages face each other directly without translation,
A world that dissolves meaning and distance emerges. The artists overlaid drawings on the photographs taken by Matsuoka,
Each of their "responses" are recorded. Their worlds resonate with each other, and a dialogue through art is quietly born.
This exhibition was born from a correspondence that transcends words.
It's a new universe.

This exhibition, held in cooperation with Heralbony Co., Ltd., Pertin Valinta, and the Finnish Institute, introduces Finnish outsider art under the theme of "Experience Finnish culture and lifestyle as expressed by outsider artists!" Through the exhibition and related events of the Outsider Art Festival (OAF) to be held in Tokyo, we hope to imagine a more inclusive, diverse, and sustainable future together.
During the exhibition, we will be showcasing a variety of works born from different cultures, including installations and video works by artists Kalevi Helvetti and Maima Tani, as well as the band Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät. These mysterious and joyful artworks, created from the unique perspectives of outsider artists, are full of playfulness and effortlessly transcend the barriers that exist between us. We hope that people's imaginations will help create a better tomorrow. Imagine Everyday!

Since childhood, Akaike Ryoya has continued to paint motifs that have captured his heart with free-flowing lines. After participating in the art club in high school, he broadened his range of expression, pursuing a unique style of color using acrylic paints and colored pencils. In his portraits, he accurately captures the characteristics and expressions of his subjects with an impressive rhythm created by the strength and flexibility of his lines, and the eyes of his subjects, which are both sharp and gentle, exude a unique presence. For Akaike, whose creative drive lies in the joy of meeting and connecting with people through drawing, this first solo exhibition marks an important milestone.
Wednesday, August 13, 2025 - Monday, September 15, 2025
