As the year draws to a close, Rich Art Gallery is honored to present the solo exhibition of artist Hakuta Yoshuya— _TABIJI 9_. This exhibition is not only a visual feast but also a profound exploration of the inner self. Life itself is an ongoing journey, and as time progresses, it is through time that we can witness, feel, and recognize its worth and beauty. The number 9 not only marks the artist's ninth year living in Taiwan but also symbolizes the concept and cycle of time. Through the artist’s guidance, we kindly extend a warm invitation to everyone to ponder life's mysteries via the spiritual attributes presented by animals within the canvases. “Everyone living in this world is a traveler”, this concept applies not only to humans but also deeply mirrors the experiences of animals. Through the use of traditional Japanese washi paper, Asian gouache pigments, and a variety of foils, Hakuta skillfully captures the textures of animals with a distinct style that gives his paintings depth and richness. He portrays animals in all their majesty and energy with vividness. Animals never back down from a challenge posed by fate. Rather, they heroically face obstacles and overcome misfortune with their companions as they bravely venture into the unknown. The animals in Hakuta’s works convey subtle messages through their body language, creating space for deeper imagination. He hopes that viewers can sense the spirit, character, and vitality of these animals and merge them with their own life experiences to evoke inner resonance. This exhibition aims to inspire viewers to, like animals, conquer their inner fears, hold fast to their faith, and face life with a fearless, adventurous spirit. Each person, on their unique journey, experiences the rich rewards life offers in their own way. _TABIJI 9_ also provides an opportunity for viewers to reflect on their own journey, contemplating the direction and meaning of life. Rich Art Gallery sincerely invites art lovers from all walks of life to embark on this journey of exploration, where art and life beautifully intertwine.
