Number-D Solo Exhitbion “Intersection Without Borders”
MH Gallery is pleased to present “Intersection Without Borders,” the first solo exhibition by Number-D, opening on Tuesday, January 27, 2026.
Number-D is an emerging artist who reinterprets New York–originated graffiti within the urban landscape of Tokyo. Consistently pushing beyond the “walls” of culture, convention, and fixed concepts, the artist explores intersections between different cultures and human emotions, carving voices into the city itself.
Regarding the act of drawing letters, Number-D describes it as “a coexistence of freedom and order—lines driven by impulse, colors shaped by structure—an act that elevates unheard intentions buried in everyday life into living proof.”
Drawing on extensive experience gained through collaborations with renowned domestic and international brands such as Pokémon, G-SHOCK, and TOYOTA, this exhibition at MH Gallery marks Number-D’s first solo show.
For this exhibition, Number-D stands at Ginza—an iconic urban intersection—once again crossing boundaries to present new beats born from the city’s noise and silence. These works, emerging from a “borderless intersection,” are introduced across five distinct sections.
Number-D encountered graffiti culture in his teens and began his career based in his hometown of Tokyo. Grounded in sensibilities cultivated on the streets, he now produces cross-genre artworks commissioned by corporations, characters, and brands. His artistic practice spans over more than a decade.
His works have been adopted by prominent domestic and international companies, media outlets, and fashion brands, including Sony, TOYOTA, BMW, CASIO (G-SHOCK), ISETAN, Fuji TV, TV Tokyo, and Ray-Ban.
Among these, his collaboration commemorating the opening of Pokémon Center Shibuya is widely recognized as one of his signature works. The nationwide release of collaborative merchandise earned high acclaim both in Japan and internationally, rapidly bringing his name to broader public attention.
While deeply rooted in street culture, Number-D is an artist currently in the spotlight for his ability to balance commercial appeal and artistic integrity at a high level.
