AshuPine

AshuPine 1994~

A spatial artist who creates space itself based on paintings.

The representative work “cave,” which captures the 3D looks of light and shadow on the rocky surface of a limestone cave, uses oil paints and different materials on a textured base with irregularities. Beautiful expressions emerge when lighting is applied. Furthermore, displaying these abstract paintings with a strong presence as objects creates a high-quality aura in any space.

My artwork puts a strong emphasis on harmonizing with the surrounding space. The artwork is known for “elevating the space where it is hung to the next level.” I collaborate with interior designers, design firms, and construction companies and deliver my artwork to various spaces, including offices, hotels, restaurants, and private residences. Furthermore, in recent years, I have been actively engaged in collaborations that transcend the traditional boundaries of painting, such as architecture, interior design, fashion, and more.

AshuPine’s works embody strength and delicacy, occasionally expressed in an avant-garde manner. However, the pursuit of quality remains paramount, always striving for elegance. With a commitment to unique, one-of-a-kind pieces distinct from conventional interior design, AshuPine has established a position as a spatial artist who creates paintings tailored to specific spaces. Based in Tokyo, AshuPine is actively engaged in domestic and international artistic activities.
