msb gallery is pleased to present "POLY -transparency," a solo exhibition by HORIGUCHI Shingo.

 

In recent years, Horiguchi has referred to himself as a "double-eyed painter" and has adopted an approach that translates into painting the process by which images captured by the human eyes are integrated in the brain.

By weaving together multiple images on a single plane, he attempts to create within the painting a structure in which the background and figure interpenetrate in a complex way.

In this exhibition, he has added a new element, making use of the transparency of acrylic paint, aiming to create a pictorial space where the transparency of reality and fiction are further polymerized.

 

We invite you to experience the significant results of his experimental works from the past few years.
