Kentaro Besshi          Art Gallery

                                                              ART IS MY INNER VOICE.   

        I LOVE HOW ENDLESS THE POSSIBILITY OF ART IS. IT IS THE UNIVERSE ITSELF.    

​

       So many people and things are 'undervalued'. I would like to help them re-recognized and give them strong, profound, and lively meanings. 

       All my art pieces are dedicated to my parents (who still are the greatest parents in the whole world), art teachers, artist friends and all the incredibly talented artists around the world whether they are actively engaged in the creations or already gone to 'the other side'. I act as a 'messenger' for them.

       The space of the exhibition is also for all the artists who lost their opportunities to express themselves because of the limitations set by the society or any surroundings. I know they have splendid creativity within them and I feel so much empathy on them. Drawing on a little piece of paper, for instance, could change the whole world and we, as artists, have the gifts to express ourselves in various forms. Rather than keeping them within ourselves, let the world know the way we are. I know we can do something powerful.

       I would also thank the visitors who continue to believe in the directions I am heading. Without them, I would be nobody. I sincerely hope that our creative spirit would live forever.
