Yosuke Ueno, 1977 | Pop Surrealist painter

Yosuke, Japanese painter🎨, started to create original characters and draw them since early childhood, and learned his way to paint by himself.

The first solo show was held in Yamaguchi when he was sixteen, 1994.

Known as Spaceegg77, and shows works in Asia, the U.S, and Europe, living in Tokyo.

Also known as a specialist of symbolism and innocence. Sometimes four colors like red, green, yellow, and blue appear in his works.

These colors represent the four bases of DNA: adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine, that is, A, T, G and C-molecular elements that all animate beings share. Yosuke paints these colors and A, T, G and C with a message that all animate beings should have equal worth.

Artist Statement: The most important thing when I paint is to be very careful. It is a consciousness in which I can’t anticipate what kind of work will result.

I hope to challenge in paint what I couldn’t handle with my mind. An adventurer makes his way without fully knowing what lies ahead.

A chemist never succeeds without experimentation. When I am working, I get to the point where I can’t even imagine the outcome, and then suddenly see a brand-new, beautiful path.
