If you're an art enthusiast visiting Shibuya, Tokyo, you won't want to miss the latest solo exhibition of popular Japanese illustrator, BerryVerrine.

Known for their striking use of color and unique pop-inspired style with influences from retrowave, they've worked on the MV illustrations for NIJISANJI Vtuber 樋口楓 Kaede Higuchi and have been hired by various companies and brands for character designs, CD jackets, and card game illustrations. In December 2022, they released their first art collection, "SPECTRUM".

The second solo exhibition of BerryVerrine's career is called "U.V.W." which stands for "ultra violet world." It will feature approximately 90 pieces, primarily original illustrations, but also including acrylic and metal art, as well as specially processed canvas pieces. These diverse materials and techniques showcase BerryVerrine's versatility and skill as an artist.

One of the highlights of the exhibition will be the opportunity to see BerryVerrine's work in large scale, with a focus on showcasing the artist's work in a way that highlights the unique qualities of each medium. The translucent beauty of acrylic art, for example, will contrast with the hard, metallic finish of metal art, making for a visually striking and dynamic experience.

In addition to the art itself, the exhibition will also feature limited edition merchandise, including metal and acrylic art pieces, which will allow visitors to take a piece of BerryVerrine's stylish world home with them.

On January 21st, BerryVerrine will also be in attendance for a signing event, which will be a great opportunity for fans to meet the artist and get their artwork signed.
