Seiichiro Osa
1985 Born in Shizuoka
Painter. He names his paintings UPOs (Unidentified Painting Objects) and confronts head-on painting’s mysterious essence — to capture something alive. In recent years, he has continued to add new depth (shading) to the world by applying paint rather than just painting. He has composed haiku as his life's work and published his first collection of haiku, 101, in 2020.
