Asuka Anastacia Ogawa

Untitled, 2023

Acrylic paint on canvas | 30.1 x 24 x 1.5 in

Born in Tokyo and raised between Brazil, Sweden, and the U.S., Asuka Anastacia Ogawa blends cultural memory with surreal figuration. In this painting, an androgynous, doll-like figure, characteristic of Ogawa’s work, moves across a monochromatic field. Rendered with soft edges and flattened hues, the composition recalls ritual iconography, while channeling Ogawa’s Afro-Brazilian and Japanese heritage into a quietly spiritual presence.
