Kaito Itsuki (b. 1993, Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan) currently lives and works in Tokyo. She graduated from Tohoku University of Art and Design with a B.A. in Fine Arts in 2016, and from Kyoto City University of Arts with an M.F.A. in Painting in 2019. Working primarily in painting, her practice employs evocative imagery and rigorous internal logic to deconstruct the mechanisms of modern human existence, navigating between metaphysical sensibility and self-discipline. She delves into the “non-productive” essence of human existence, the friction and fulfillment in interpersonal connections, and a transcendental realm beyond the dualism of right and wrong. Her imagery often revolves around the tension between the external shell of the “human” and inner “animality,” examining the danger and sacredness of intimate relationships under the order of civilization. Important solo exhibitions include: “Restricted Actions, Psychological Film” at Hua Art Space, Beijing (2022); “現れるのに胜手はない” at Lisa, Tokyo (2021) and “百獣の階” at Gallery MEME, Seoul (2021); “Searching...” at 14a, Hamburg (2020); “IDEE FIXE” at Tong Gallery+Project, Beijing (2019) and “たりない循獣 / Unsatified Animals of the cycle” at Ginza Tsutaya, Tokyo (2019); “Tiger Poet” at CLEAR GALLERY, Tokyo (2018); “THE WOMEN FROM THE GROUND” at DNA, Osaka (2017), “Jungle-7,000,000” at MORI YU GALLERY, Kyoto (2017), and “Tiger Technique” at KCUA, Kyoto (2017). Important group exhibitions include: “Cope” at No Gallery, New York (2022) and “Temple” at Seventh Gallery, Melbourne (2022); “Low Fever” at Tang Contemporary Art, Hong Kong (2021); “COLLECTION AS POEM IN THE AGE OF EPHEMERALITY” at X Museum, Beijing (2020) and “A Delinquent Child Having An Out Of Body Experience” at Residential Gallery, London (2020); “完全変形” at SuperDutches, New York (2019) and “Scaffolds of Meaning / 懶音” at MINE PROJECT, Hong Kong (2019); “Encounter” at PDX Contemporary Art, Portland (2018); “The 4th CAF Award Exhibition” at Hillside Terrace, Tokyo (2017). Awards and honors include: nominated for ARTnews Japan’s “30 Artists Under 35” and recipient of a KUMA Foundation grant (2021); recipient of a Peter S. Reed Foundation grant and support from Guangzhou Contemporary Art Fair (2020); participation in NADA MIAMI (2019); second-term KUMA Foundation scholarship recipient and participation in ARTIST’S FAIR KYOTO (2018); first-term KUMA Foundation scholarship recipient and nomination for the 4th CAF Award (2017).

代表作与创作Selected Works & Style
皆藤斋（Kaito Itsuki，1993年生于日本北海道札幌）是一位以绘画为主要媒介的日本当代艺术家。她的作品以独特的视觉语言和深刻的主题著称。
**代表作品**（部分）
- 《Still life ( Blue mask and egg ）》(2022，布面油画、木炭，91 × 72.7 cm)

**创作特点**
1. **题材与核心关切**
她的创作常聚焦于身份认同、梦境、记忆与时间等主题，画面围绕“人”的外壳与内在“兽性”之间的张力展开。通过描绘人类、动物与想象生物的变形与互动，她审视文明秩序下亲密关系的危险性与神圣性，并探讨自我陶醉、反社会倾向以及人们如何通过假想神话塑造身份。
2. **风格与手法**
作品兼具卡通风格、表现性具象和浪漫主义元素。她善于将大胆的色彩与不连续的叙事相结合：糖果般明亮的粉色、蓝色与褐色的怪异色调形成强烈对比，画面有种明确的粗糙笔触和满布纹理的质感。她从数码草图（iPad）开始创作，再转移到画布上，刻意保留手绘的不精确感，以区别于屏幕图像的完美呈现。
3. **叙事逻辑**
皆藤斋将想象与现实揉合，把看似不连贯的元素集合在一起，以此反映人类心灵的整体性。画中诞生出的新兴神话，是对观众自身与社会规范冲突的反射，也尝试在个人特殊性与文化惯性之间取得平衡，将自我拓展到既有秩序之外。
4. **常用媒介**
布面油画、丙烯、炭笔、拼贴以及综合材料，常以画布为基底进行多层次的表现。

**Creative Style**
Kaito Itsuki, born in 1993 in Sapporo, Japan, works primarily in painting. Her creative style is characterized by emotionally charged imagery and rigorous internal logic. She deconstructs the survival mechanisms of modern humans, moving between metaphysical sensitivity and self-discipline. Her work explores fundamental aspects of human existence such as "unproductivity," the friction and wholeness found in interpersonal connections, and transcendental states beyond binary logic.
