Artist Profiles:
Shinjiro Tanaka
Shinjiro Tanaka is a Tokyo-based artist born in Los Angeles and raised in Tokyo. Working across painting, murals, installations, and audiovisual media, he builds visual languages from elemental dots and lines. Influenced by the physicality of street dance and urban culture, his practice centers on hazama—the space between opposing forces. In an increasingly polarized world, Tanaka explores this in-between as a place of possibility, seeking to act as a bridge rather than choosing sides.
Rico Suhr
Rico Suhr is a German photographer and tour guide based in Tokyo. He focuses on street and documentary photography, capturing the city’s raw, everyday energy — from underground scenes and live music to matsuri and local life. He also runs Tokyo Unfiltered, offering photo workshops and tours that explore a more real side of Tokyo. His work has been shown at the Setagaya Art Museum as well as galleries in Mexico and Hamburg, Germany.

The Spilt Ink
Johnny (The Spilt Ink) is a Tokyo-based artist whose practice spans painting, live performance, and mixed-media work. Influenced by comic illustration, graffiti, and classic Hollywood photography, he developed his distinctive “PopSick Art” style during the pandemic. Johnny has exhibited and performed internationally across Japan, Europe, and the United States, and continues to produce commissioned and gallery-based work.
Wayne Buchner
Wayne Buchner is a photographer with more than forty years of experience across travel, portraiture, and commercial photography. His work focuses more on people, not places, which are the true subject. His photographs capture fleeting human moments: a shared glance, an embrace. Grounded in patience, proximity, and timing, his photographs emerge from observation, reflecting a continual practice of learning to see fresh each day.
