New York-based Japanese artist Tomokazu Matsuyama will unveil his new solo bi-culture-inspired art exhibition titled 'Episodes Far From Home' at Almine Rech art gallery in London, England. Tomokazu Matsuyama is known for his paintings, which explore themes of globalization and national identity in the Internet age.

Tomokazu Matsuyama's 'Episodes Far From Home' art exhibition illustrates his bi-cultural experience of growing up between Japan and America with a colorful and complex aesthetic that merges Eastern and Western symbology. The art exhibition features several paintings containing speckled background patterns, floral motifs, and vibrant furniture. Standout items shown in the painting that demonstrate the conflation of Eastern and Western themes include a Sapporo bottle, a Starburst candy wrapper, an Edo Period kimono, an English-inspired fireplace, and more. The art exhibition is open from April 20 to May 20.
