Born in 1978 in Tokyo. The artist got his education at the Tama Art Institute in Tokyo, graduating in 1997, and at the National College of Art and Design in Dublin, where he got his BA in Fine Art Painting in 2005. Atsushi also got a diploma at Col\u00e1iste Stiof\u00e1in Naofa, Cork, in 2001.<br \/>His fluffy animals experience drug addiction, depression, petty crime and eating disorders.

There, we see a series of <strong>unfortunate narratives<\/strong> that are simultaneously <strong>witty<\/strong>, <strong>straightforward<\/strong>, and <strong>melancholy<\/strong>.<br \/>The works are charming and wistfully sad, and Kaga subtly extracts a faint amusement from his audience where it could easily plunge into an inescapable psychic void.<br \/><strong>Atsushi Kaga<\/strong> lives and works in Dublin and Kyoto, furthermore he is always busy or traveling around the world for artistic reasons, nevertheless I managed to meet him to ask some questions for the readers of <strong>BIANCOSCURO<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"796\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/4.-Atsushi-Kaga_From-Kyoto-to-Connecticut_2021_Acrylic-and-imitation-gold-leaf-on-board_41-x-32-cm_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-796x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/4.-Atsushi-Kaga_From-Kyoto-to-Connecticut_2021_Acrylic-and-imitation-gold-leaf-on-board_41-x-32-cm_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-796x1024.jpg 796w, https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/4.-Atsushi-Kaga_From-Kyoto-to-Connecticut_2021_Acrylic-and-imitation-gold-leaf-on-board_41-x-32-cm_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/4.-Atsushi-Kaga_From-Kyoto-to-Connecticut_2021_Acrylic-and-imitation-gold-leaf-on-board_41-x-32-cm_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-768x988.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/4.-Atsushi-Kaga_From-Kyoto-to-Connecticut_2021_Acrylic-and-imitation-gold-leaf-on-board_41-x-32-cm_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London.jpg 999w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>\u201cFrom Kyoto to Connecticut\u201d, 2021, acrilico e foglia oro su tavola \/ acrylic and imitation gold leaf on board, 41&#215;32 cm.

I love Italy but above all the masters of the Renaissance&#8230;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> I saw your works in the booths of the <strong>mother\u2019s tankstation<\/strong> gallery during <strong>Art Basel<\/strong>. The <strong>Usacchi<\/strong> bunny, who I later discovered to be your alter ego, is very nice and his friend <strong>Kumacchi<\/strong> is a somewhat complex teddy bear, you could briefly describe them\u2026<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: Kumacchi<\/em><\/strong><em> is a chronically depressed bear, he lost his leg in a car accident outside a forest.&nbsp; <\/em><strong><em>Usacchi<\/em><\/strong><em> is a trickstar bunny who is the best friend of <\/em><strong><em>Kumacchi<\/em><\/strong><em>. <\/em><strong><em>Usacchi<\/em><\/strong><em> is a nerd and he loves cats.&nbsp; They support each other in a rather harsh reality.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> Your work is <em>\u201chumorous but dark\u201d<\/em>, a lot of the humour comes directly from the darkness<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>Humour is something we have to invent or create. Darkness is something just out there. It is full of it in the world. If I just described what is out there it would be just very dark. So I want to make it more bearable with humour.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> There are many cats in your works, in the office we are all cat-lovers, are you also cat-lovers?<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>Yes, I am. I love cats and have two cats now. <\/em><strong><em>Kuniyoshi<\/em><\/strong><em> and <\/em><strong><em>Fujita<\/em><\/strong><em> are other Japanese artists who loved cats.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> Oh\u2026 Wonderful! I Know <strong>Kuniyoshi<\/strong>, <strong>edo period master<\/strong>. Atshushi, you divide your life between Ireland and Japan, how does this influence your works?<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>Yes it does immensely. I don\u2019t know how it affects my work. But this culturally bilingualism is a huge part of my work.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> Surely you have artists who have inspired you throughout your life, do you want to tell us about them?<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>There are so many.&nbsp; To name a few, <\/em><strong><em>Caravaggio<\/em><\/strong><em>, <\/em><strong><em>Ogata Kohrin<\/em><\/strong><em>, <\/em><strong><em>Ito Jakuchu<\/em><\/strong><em>, and <\/em><strong><em>Giotto<\/em><\/strong><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> Is the finished work more valuable, or what viewers can think of the work?<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>What the viewer thinks of my work is more valuable. Without it, there would be absolutely no point in doing it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> What are your next projects?<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>A solo show at <\/em><strong><em>mother\u2019s tankstation in Dublin in September<\/em><\/strong><em>. and a group show at <\/em><strong><em>Jessica Silverman in San Francisco<\/em><\/strong><em>, in September.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> What would you recommend to a young person who decides to turn his passion into a job?<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>Just keep at it no matter what. And one more, working in a nursing home teaches you a lot about life and the world. It would be a lot quicker to learn about them than reading books or watching the internet.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-c-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>V.C.:<\/strong> Thank you so much Atsushi you are a truly sensitive and special person.<br \/><strong><em>A.K.: <\/em><\/strong><em>Thank you very much for the opportunity.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Atsushi-Kaga_Artist-Portrait_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Atsushi-Kaga_Artist-Portrait_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Atsushi-Kaga_Artist-Portrait_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Atsushi-Kaga_Artist-Portrait_Courtesy-the-artist-and-mothers-tankstation-Dublin-London.jpg 999w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Atsushi Kaga.
