Keeenue's art is bold and beautiful

From fine art to fashion prints, Keeenue's bold and colorful designs are show-stopping. The Tokyo-based artist plays with color in unique and daring, adventurous works. She is an absolute original, peaking the interest of companies like Nike and Facebook with her designs.

The 29 year old artist's imaginative works have garnered critical acclaim worldwide. She has hosted solo exhibitions since 2016, and she has been featured in selected group exhibitions in cities worldwide since 2017. Keeenue was born in Kanagawa, Japan and graduated from Tama Art University in 2016. She had worked alongside Keiichi Tanaami as his assistant until venturing out on her own.

Keeenue does not stick to one medium. Her designs can be found in massive murals, in fine art museums, in bold fashion designs, on web and mobile graphics, and in home décor, among other media. She is not a one-note artist, as she continues to spread her wings and discover her world through art.

Keeenue's impressive collaborations

The signature figures of Keeenue are featured on last year's Nike Tokyo Running Pack. This collaboration, though with an enormously sought-after apparel company was not her first dip into the fashion world. Her designs were featured in a Lucky Tapes collection in 2019, not just on shirts and bags, but also on a billboard design. The Nike design is a bit of a step-up from the former fashion collaboration. The bright bubbles of color flow into the lines of Nike's running apparel to connect in an infinity loop. Keeenue's bold designs were released with rave reviews in the Nike Tokyo winter 2020 collection.

Keeenue's collaborative efforts did not stop with wearable fashion. Her massive murals can be seen at The University of Tokyo, Hotel Koe, Shibamata Fu-Ten Bed and Local, and many other businesses and storefronts in and around Tokyo.

She has created a multitude of amazing art in a vast number of mediums. Keeenue dazzled in a Pacifica Collectives collection by producing an oil-painted rug. She turned to 3-D media in the Vinyls collection with a figure based on the oneness of two kindred spirits. And she designed a cool-girl clutch bag for fashion brand Heming's.

Keeenue is continually growing

As Covid-19 restrictions loosen, Keeenue is able to continue displaying her artwork all around Japan. In 2021, she has participated in the Stacks June 2021 exhibition in Shibuya.
