Soothing hues surround a sleepy subject in a limited edition print by Asuka Anastacia Ogawa.

Paintings by Ogawa often feature almond-eyed, dark-skinned children – looking right at you. She draws inspiration from her Japanese and Afro-Brazilian heritage, using mysterious figures and scenes to set out her vision for a world without social division.

Our first collaboration with Ogawa, Sleepy, imagines a moment of peace. Calm and content, a figure rests their head gently on a table. Like in all of her paintings, Ogawa uses a limited palette of subdued colours to enchanting effect.

Ogawa worked closely with printmakers at Make-Ready in London to ensure these colours were precisely replicated in her print.

Girl with long plaits infront of blazing sun

Asuka Anastacia Ogawa1 collaborationIf there’s a unifying theme in Asuka Anastacia Ogawa’s paintings, it’s the artist herself. She says “I welcome unfiltered inspiration that isn’t always understood or in need of being fully understood.” Motifs arise organically across her paintings of dark-skinned, almond-eyed children at play. She paints a world free of social division – her figures are androgynous and mingle freely with animals. The candy-coloured palette and rounded figures invoke softness and comfort – even in a crocodile’s grin.
