"Within this uneasy, agitated, and uncomfortable state lies a fertile ground for resilience."

CRUMBLE is an invitation to find strength within fragility. The exhibition explores the vulnerability of charcoal dust itself and our own pursuit of achievement—through practice and resistance to impermanence.

GHOSTCHARCOALS’ portraits reflect a personal engagement with the raw and the immediate. Each drawing is created in a single session, always in one go. In the artist’s personal reflection, the works reveal his restlessness and urgency in engaging with the paper. This energy appears in the brushstrokes, in pieces that often feel “unfinished.” Within this uneasy, agitated, and uncomfortable state lies a fertile ground for resilience.

GHOSTCHARCOALS'

GHOSTCHARCOALS is the artist platform of Brazilian creative director Rodrigo Marinheiro, who has been based in Tokyo since 2020. His choice of charcoal emerged from a decision to step away from the screens that had surrounded him during more than 20 years in advertising. His past work includes collaborations with Adidas, Nike, Nissan, Nespresso, Visa, Mastercard, GoDaddy, Porsche, Bazooka Candy, and Sony PlayStation. At the opposite end of the spectrum, he chose to get his hands dirty.
