biscuit gallery, a contemporary art commercial gallery located on Shibuya Ward Shoto Culture Street (Shibuya Ward Shoto), will hold an exhibition featuring three visual artists: Hinako Sugiyama, Hidetaka Suzuki, and Shinji Nakakaze.
From October 6 (Thursday) to October 23 (Sunday).

 

This project held vol.1 in April 2022 welcoming Takeoh Takao, Yukino Yamanaka, and Rika Inoue. Starting with vol.2 of this exhibition, we plan to hold consecutive exhibitions through vol.3 and vol.4 for three months continuously (scheduled for October to December 2022).
