ARUTA SOUP

日本

ARUTA SOUP is known for mixing cartoon culture, UK-specific black jokes and street culture in his paintings and graffiti. In each work, the artist opens a dialogue on timely issues, both of the society and people’s psychological status. The rabbits that appear frequently on his works are reflections of the complex, chaotic and violent world he is living in, as well as forms of his soul, wounded yet desires a rebirth.

 

While he was 17 years old, he moved to London to study Illustration at the Camberwell College of Arts in London.

He had a large exhibition at Shibuya Seibu, large-scale solo shows in the U.K., Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China, and has participated in numerous art fairs. He had a solo exhibition at the Tai kun museum in 2020.

His works have been featured on i-D Japan, and other magazines.
