Akira Masuda

The ideal angel, “Angel-chan”

Selected Works ↓

Influenced by Western painting through to contemporary art, Akira Masuda centres his practice on "Enjeru-chan", his vision of the ideal angel. Through a figure everyone recognises, he channels the emotions of daily life into pose and expression.
Born in Hyogo in 1998; graduated in oil painting from Osaka University of Arts in 2021. He has held solo exhibitions mainly in Kobe and shown at Independent Tokyo, UNKNOWN ASIA and Shinsaibashi PARCO Wall Gallery, as well as art fairs in Busan, Bangkok and Taipei.
