A seasoned Nihonga artist, Junya Tsubota celebrates the four seasons of Japan in his work. Natural phenomena and forms, such as water and sky, are the primary focus of his work. Tsubota contrasts these elements with the use of artificially bright, unearthly colors. This melding of styles and subject matter brings new aspects of harmony into the space the painting is displayed in. Tsubota’s works have appeared in exhibitions across Asia, Europe, and North America, including the solo exhibition, Rhythm, in SEIZAN Gallery New York in 2022.
