Presentation
Born in Tokyo and now lives and works in Tokyo, Bien, phonetically meaning 'rhinitis' in Japanese, roots his practices on deconstructing cultural symbols. Inspired by Tokyo street culture and animation, Bien breaks contemporary images into random lines and palettes of shiny colors. Lines that Bien creates are fragments of his imagination towards the anime culture: they could be alphabets or manga characters. Weird shapes that are formed by his lines, at once, become a new form.
His interpretation of the contemporary Japanese culture is celebrated by the indie art circle in Tokyo. As one of the representatives of generation, he makes not only paintings and installation, but also prints and fashion design.
