NO REASON

Artist Profile

• SAIAKUNANA

  SAIAKUNANA Contemporary artist Born in Japan in 1992. When SaiakuNana first started working as an artist in Japan, she went by her real name Nana. However, after a colleague at her job described her paintings as Saiaku which means Terrible, Nana decided to add Saiaku to her real name, thus becoming the artist known as SaiakuNana. Beginning in 2015, she began holding solo exhibitions in Tokyo, Japan. As a music lover, her works are not limited to the field of art but belong to a wide range of the contemporary art scene, including collaborations with musicians. In 2018, she won the grand prize at the 21st Taro Okamoto Award for Contemporary Art. Afterwards, she used all her prize money to move to New York and held her first solo exhibition. Her first art book Art Rock Manifesto (DLE Publishing) was published in April 2019, followed by her first solo exhibition in London. Her largest solo exhibition to date titled NO REASON was held at Gallery KATA in Ebisu Liquid Room in Tokyo in 2020. For the past 10 years SaiakuNana has never belonged to a gallery, nor has she been invited to join one. Therefore, she decided to set up her own gallery in London in 2021, SAIAKUNANA GALLERY which will be completely founded and owned by herself through self-financing and will exclusively sell her work. After that, in 2023, She successfully held her largest solo exhibition Art of my life (at SAI(Tokyo)).
