Kawamura Gun

Kawamura Gun is a painter, a videomaker and a musician emerging in the International art world. Born Yaizu in Japan, he moved to London to study art. He fell in love with the trans-avantgarde movement and moved in Rome, where he still lives and works.

His art could not exist without humour, cynicism and a splash of sensuality. The urban spaces in Rome, Tokyo, NY are the key of his work inspired to comics, graffiti or cartoons. Naked characters covering their face with gauze bandages where just the mouth comes out, eating ramen or running trough the city in a caustic and paradoxical urban setting of contradictory perspectives and angles, sometimes running and eating at the same time. They occupy spaces, change dimension, move to different angles, look scared for something, or rather excited, obsessed by food and by the contemporary cycle of ricycle and consumption.
