Mexico City-based but Japanese born Kenta Torri is showing at FIFTY24MX Gallery with a solo show called Saiyuki Punk. The show inspired by the ancient Chinese story “Journey to the West” (the same that inspired Dragon Ball) in which the main character, the Monkey King, travels to the west to rescue some manuscripts. In this journey the characters fight in spiritual battles to reach illumination. Kenta reinterprets the story mixing traditional iconography with a contemporary punk aesthetics.
