Yuree Kensaku’s work is full of strange and beautiful characters: cartoon occupants of a distinct fantasy world. In each work, Kensaku conjures characters with complete narrative arcs. These vivid and sweet characters live in her stories, which are sometimes about herself or womanhood, sometimes a social commentary or a critique on politics, and sometimes about the art world.

The work titled 𝑳𝒐𝒖𝒊𝒔 𝑿𝑽𝑰was created for and exhibited in Bangkok Art Biennale(BAB) 2020. She paints on a plank of wood cut into the shape of King Louis XVI, connecting symbols and icons from the world’s masterpieces to her own experiences. In constructing new worlds, Yuree always leaves her viewers wondering about all the different ways her works could be appreciated.
