Radically altering our experience of space, the duo’s colourful vinyl work has transformed the interiors of Kerry Centre Shanghai with multifaceted graphics. Tsai & Yoshikawa create a series of three-dimensional and two-dimensional artworks for Jing An Kerry Centre’s theme of Love Together. They take possession of the spaces with an inspiration to happiness, passion and love. The artworks incline together in all respects to create the concept of love. The pieces are loving in its every perspective and the imagery depicted goes beyond portraiture in any case, beautifully soft and sultry composition.

When love meets, the heartbeat becomes more noticeable and chemistry happens. The feeling is like riding a roller coaster or being in a tornado. The love chemistry spirals out of control and waves up high. Artists’ signature mixed-media light sculptures ‘Pop Bloom’ and ‘Stars’ highlight the moment of surprise and happiness that jumping from our heart. The vivid colour scheme of the red heart contrasts with the green details presents playfulness. Their soft sculptures offer the viewers a perfectly picturesque spot while the specially designed seating area is a place where love meets.
Infinity Love, 2019
a series of infinity drawings
Printed mirror and vinyl
Dimensions variable
Each viewer is presented with individual unique experiences while enjoying Tsai & Yoshikawa’s infinity mirror art installation. Inspired by the long corridor space and mirrored ceiling, the artists create ‘Infinity Love’ with their abstract colourful paintings’ motifs. When viewers walk through the corridor, they are immersed in this infinity space. The patterns crossing over the parallel mirrors overlap and create layers of infinity patterns. When an individual walks through the corridor and looks at the reflecting surface, it completes the artwork and creates your unique experience. It is like how love meets, and chemistry happens. Not one experience is the same. The viewers are welcome to interact with the piece with their loved ones or even a stranger.
