Tetsuya Nakamura
Born in Chiba Prefecture in 1968, he studied lacquer art at the Tokyo University of the Arts Graduate School.

Since then, he has been focusing on the information that visual information can provide to living organisms.

I have produced a variety of sculptures.

Nakamura began to develop an affinity and understanding for Godzilla as a modeler in his high school days. During his student days, while studying arts and crafts, Nakamura came into contact with many Buddhist statues and discovered commonalities between the changes in style of Japanese Buddhist art and the changes in Godzilla's shape, which further deepened his interest.

It is said that Godzilla from the 1964 film "Mothra vs. Godzilla" can be compared to a Buddhist statue from the Heian period, and that the ideal form of Godzilla was perfected after that. This time, Nakamura will create the 1964 Godzilla and King Ghidorah.

Ryuichi Ohira
Born in Tokyo in 1982 and raised in Chiba, he received his doctorate from the Tokyo University of the Arts Graduate School in 2011.

"Godzilla has been the representative of absurdity for me since I was a child, and has also been an entity that gives me a certain kind of 'awakening.' Godzilla suddenly appears in our daily lives without any purpose, and then disappears. This time, I have likened Godzilla to a hammer, a motif that symbolizes an absurd existence.

"I can't express it well in words, but I thought that "Godzilla and the Hammer" was the perfect fit, so I decided to create it. Life is a series of absurdities. There may seem to be a consistency between what happened a few seconds ago and what happens a few seconds later, but there is no consistency. So we have no choice but to love absurdity. I created Godzilla Hammer to love reasonless destruction and creation, and absurd death and life," Ohira said.

James Jarvis
Born in 1970, James Jarvis is a London-based artist who has worked as an illustrator and character designer.

His artistic style is widely recognized and appreciated in Japan. He ran a company called "Amos" with SILAS co-founder Russell Waterman from 2003 to 2013, and has recently collaborated with many global brands such as NIKE, UNIQLO, IKEA, and adidas.

This time, James will be exhibiting a series of Godzilla works, drawn in a free style on paper, displayed in clipboard style.

Haroshi
Since 2003, he has been creating unique sculptures and installations using recycled skateboard decks.

Haroshi's work in this exhibition is inspired by the scene in which the original Godzilla first appeared. The work is made using discarded skateboards, with Godzilla's teeth carved out of urethane wheels (tires) from skateboards that the artist himself had used. The phenomenon in which skateboard wheels get stuck in the deck is called "wheel bite," and inspired by this term, Haroshi has created Godzilla's teeth out of wheels, attempting to recreate a "wheel bite." The yellowing of the teeth reflects the color of the wheels that have actually been burned by the sun while using a skateboard.

Oliver Payne
Since the late 1990s, as a collaborative artist with Nick Ralph, he has been actively creating video works and installation pieces based on street culture such as skate, hardcore music, punk, and graffiti.

For this exhibition, Oliver was so inspired by the sounds of the 1954 Godzilla film that he decided to use them to create a harsh noise piece.

"It was exciting to create noise music using sounds from Godzilla movies, and to release it in Japan, a country where noise music is so well developed. I produced this with the help of my friend David Scott Stone, who has produced sounds for Merzbow, Masonna, Melvins, and others," says Oliver.
