Jun Takahashi is set to present his first-ever solo art exhibition, Peaceable Kingdom in Hong Kong this month.
Takahishi is a highly acclaimed figure in the fashion sector, whom most know of as the founder of UNDERCOVER. While this is his first solo exhibition in Hong Kong, the designer has been creating paintings outside of his fashion work for decades. In 2023, Takahashi finally presented his artwork to the public and was even featured on the cover of Hypebeast Magazine last fall.
Going deeper into Takahashi’s dark and surreal universe, Peaceable Kingdom will showcase the three canvases that inspired the motifs in the designers’ SS25 Men’s collection. A new body or paintings will also be unveiled at the exhibition, all tied in with a running concept of portraying “the conflict between the chaos of today’s world and the artist’s own deep desire for peace.”
Jun Takahashi’s Peaceable Kingdom will be available to view at WKM Gallery in Hong Kong from October 25 to December 14, 2024.
