Kawata Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition by the painter Shiina Hoshi.

Shiina Hoshi has developed her painting practice through a unique perspective in which the pictorial surface is conceived as a self-contained space.
Through careful observation of spatial relationships, light, and shifts in viewpoint, her paintings emerge as places where inner perception and the external world quietly intersect, transcending simple depictions of landscape or imagery.

Executed in oil on canvas, her works maintain a sense of intimacy while preserving a subtle distance that resists easy entry.
This distance creates an open field of interpretation, allowing viewers to gently project their own memories and emotions onto the pictorial space.

This exhibition focuses on recent and new works, presenting Shiina Hoshi’s current explorations in painting.
We invite you to spend time with these quietly compelling works and to experience the moments in which your own inner landscapes begin to surface before them.
