My painting is used in the book cover illustrations of “Kuruma no Musume” (Kawade Shobo Shinsha) by Rin Usami, a famous Japanese novelist.
It’s a work 20 years ago, but it’s a work that I personally love.
I am glad that this painting of mine was selected as the book cover.
Please pick it up at a bookstore.

“Fuco Ueda, born in 1979 in Tochigi prefecture. She completed graduate school at Tokyo Polytechnic University in 2003. In 2000, she was selected for the “Hitotsubo Exhibition”, in 2001 she received the JACA Special Award, and in 2004 she exhibited at the VOCA Exhibition. Started energetic activities and continues to the present.
Fuco Ueda draws a daydream-like scene that mixes reality and fantasy that a girl experiences with unique colors and color schemes. When the joy of being at the mercy of the flood of images and being able to approach a place that is nowhere else, the work depicted with personal feelings, on the other hand, is a reality for people of the same age who live in modern times and are saturated with substances and information. Creates empathy as a mirror. Large chrysanthemums with bloated petals that have been repeatedly bred to make them more beautiful, and goldfish that require conscious maintenance to maintain the varieties. Those that have been improved. This exhibition consists of new works and recent works created based on Fuco Ueda’s interest in artificial beauty and desires. “Because you can see the fundamental desires of human beings, which is similar to the image of a woman who has been superimposed on the ideal” beauty “in art expression from ancient times. As a being that cannot grow naturally without the hands of others, her skill in her is more and more accentuated by “beauty”. “Ueda said so.
People always do not doubt the position of the viewer of “beauty”, but is it possible to reverse the boundaries of that position? We hope that you will take a look at the works of Fuco Ueda, who continues to explore the possibilities of expression while embracing such desires. 』

From gallery MUMON press release
“Hisashi Tenmyouya declares his unique painting expression,” Neo Nihonga “, which inherits and develops the spirit and world view of each school of traditional Japanese painting. In addition, he is brilliant and predominant (extraordinary), and he creates works based on the original concept of “BASARA”, which is a general term for the genealogy of the beauty of the martial arts, which is based on the street’s line of sight to Japanese modernism. I will. He has broken down common sense and customs, and has drawn in layers with progressively modified themes and critical concepts of history and institutions for art. In this exhibition, we will mainly present a battle map in which samurai fight intertwined.
On the other hand, Fuco Ueda has established her own world view by drawing a daydream-like scene where the reality and fantasy that a girl experiences are mixed with unique colors and color schemes. The view of the world has influenced many writers. When people are at the mercy of the flood of images and have the joy of being able to approach a place that is nowhere else, the work depicted with personal feelings, on the other hand, is a reality for people of the same age who live in modern times when substances and information are saturated. It creates sympathy as a mirror of. The work depicts the chief of art, sometimes referred to by art history, and artificially improved goldfish and chrysanthemums in search of beauty, with historicality, irony, and criticism.
A co-star that can be said to be the exact opposite of Tenmyouya, who draws a brave male image, and Ueda, who draws a fantastic female image. Please take a look at what will be born in this space. 』
