Truth and fiction, figuration and abstraction: it all runs together in Shimon Kamada’s work. His paintings tell a story of melancholic, lonely or embarrassing experiences. They give viewers a sense of nostalgia and sympathy in their narrative space. The things portrayed seem so familiar, but are shaken up in the context of time and memory. Kamada’s surreal approach creates mystery, his Japanese background evokes unexpected interpretations in his Western audience.

Shimon Kamada
Shimon Kamada is in 2020 door EXboot uitgekozen om deel te nemen aan HKU Vers, naar aanleiding van de uitgestelde, fysieke eindexposities van HKU Fine Art in september 2020. Vanwege de lockdown is de expositie van Kamada met vertraging alsnog te zien.
