KAREN SHIOZAWA

And night will come.

Karen Shiozawa brings the miracle of a fantastic night.

A story with a star that no one has ever seen.Over a thousand nights, thinking about nostalgic galaxies.《千の夜 - Thousand Nights》, is the first solo exhibition of young Japanese artist Karen Shiozawa in Whitestone Gallery Singapore, from 16th November to 29th December 2024. The exhibition featuring her new works seeks to explore the deep relationship between humans and the universe, beyond the past and future.

Shiozawa’s works intertwine memories of the past with current realities and unknown memories. Today, it merges her childhood in the Netherlands together with her experience as an artist. Through the exhibition, viewers will have the opportunity to evoke their own childhood senses and scenery. With hands that fill the surface of a wooden panel with bright colors, then covered with darker shades, the artist portrays landscapes, architecture and images of children. Through the method of stained glass and European-style architecture, the works are illuminated by the light exuding from vivid colors, resulting in the effect of inviting viewers into this world.

The exhibition features drawings and images, allowing visitors to cross their own concept of time and space, rediscovering the deep connection between stars and humans.

Shiozawa hopes that the light in her work and exhibition will lead to a galaxy of imagination, where they can experience a journey of stars that freely jump through dreams and reality, past and future.This feeling of nostalgia that cannot be defined by words will shine like stars through her art.

Come join us for an enchanting time and view the stars together.
