Born in Kyoto, Japan, Yuhi Hasegawa moved to New York City to pursue a Master’s degree in Fine Arts at the School of Visual Arts. After completing his studies Yuhi stayed in Brooklyn where he currently lives and works. His paintings mix elements of primal and contemporary culture and rituals; there is both an instinctive, intuitive quality in his paintings, and also a deliberate confidence. In 2009, he was in a very famous group show called “Weak Painting”, that is his frist time to exhibited works in Taiwan. In 2011, Yuhi got Art Takes lLondon grand prize form Artist Wanted.
