SAIAKU NANA-CHAN

SAIAKUNANACHAN presents her core spirit in "27yrs Old" - keep drawing without stopping and giving up, and change something.


Her name "SAIAKU" meaning "the WORST/HORRIBLE" in Japanese, came from the comment to her art work, given by her senior staff at the work place.  Since then, she carried this "SAIAKU" around with her real name "NANA".  So the SAIAKUNANACHAN means the WORST/HORRIBLE little NANA.

SAIAKUNANACHAN is an up and coming artist of Japan with already 9 years of experience creating some 3,000 pcs of art works.  She won the best "TARO award" from the globally renown Taro Okamoto's 21st Taro Okamoto Award for Contemporary Art.  And now she is performing and exhibiting in and out of Tokyo, Japan. She flew to the UK without any prior arrangements, and made her first UK exhibition successfully.  This little NANA is a steady and strong artist who keeps drawing with a passion to change something. Her song "27 years old" is about such a feeling and the spirit.
