For the first time in Brazil, Japanese artist Ayako Rokkaku — debuting her works at SP-Arte — will host an exclusive Live Painting session. The audience will have a unique opportunity to witness her creative process up close, observing the transformation of the canvas.
A self-taught artist, Ayako Rokkaku is one of Japan's leading contemporary artists and a prominent figure in the current international contemporary art scene. Her work is characterized by energetic canvases filled with emotional depth, where color and gesture come together in a unique way. Without preparatory sketches or underpainting, Rokkaku uses her fingers as tools — spontaneity is her driving force, as she creates mesmerizing scenes highlighted by fluorescent tones and inhabited by bold heroines. Her live painting sessions are intimate occasions where the audience has the chance to experience her fluid and free-flowing creative process.
