Solo exhibition “SANPAINT EXHIBITION 6th” will be held from March 7th (Fri) to 10th (Mon), 2025.
SANPAINT, an artist who has attracted attention for his oil paintings with a vintage car motif, will hold his sixth solo exhibition, “SANPAINT EXHIBITION 6th.” Following on from last year, the venue will be the art gallery “New Space PA” in Harajuku, Tokyo.
This solo exhibition will feature eight new oil paintings by SANPAINT. The works include personified bikes and a fusion of samurai and bikes, expressing a unique worldview. This is a great opportunity to experience up close the texture and impact that only oil paintings can offer.
Furthermore, SANPAINT himself will be present throughout the entire event, providing a rare opportunity to hear directly about his work and the passion that goes into creating it. All works are available for purchase, making this an event not to be missed by collectors and fans, as well as anyone interested in art and classic car culture.

[What is SANPAINT?]
SANPAINT has been painting bikes and helmets at the request of vintage bike shops since around 2016. After that, in order to express his own unique worldview, he began creating oil paintings with vintage bikes as the motif, and in 2021 he began working full-time as a painter.
In addition to holding solo exhibitions, he has also participated in various art exhibitions, created logos for shops and brands, and created the poster visuals for BOBL (Battle Of Bottom Link), a road racing event open only to motorcycles with bottom-link suspension.
In 2024, he appeared on the BS Fuji TV program “Break Zenya – Next Generation Artists,” and his work was featured in the French bike culture magazine “KULT,” attracting increasing attention both at home and abroad.
“SANPAINT EXHIBITION 6th” is a one-of-a-kind solo exhibition where bikes and art intersect. We hope you will come and witness this overwhelming worldview at the venue.
