EVENT DESCRIPTION
Whitestone Gallery Hong Kong is honored to present Sacred Nexus, a solo exhibition by acclaimed Japanese artist Miwa Komatsu. Until now, Miwa Komatsu has presented works under the theme of “Sense of Sacredness,” aiming to evoke our inner spirituality. Now, as embarking on a new venture, the “Sacred Nexus” exhibition unveils over 20 new works by the artist.
A “Sacred Nexus” is a confluence of sacred resonance — a place or moment where we can have spiritual interaction and dialogue with divine spirits and the natural world. Historical sites of worship, lands imbued with earnest prayers, and nature itself are the inspirations of Komatsu’s practice; she envisions the “invisible energy”, and creates the intersection of the material and immaterial realms. By amplifying the resonance between her works and the viewers, the audience is reminded of the sacredness deep within themselves, prompting their connection to divinity in this new chapter of “Sacred Nexus”.
ABOUT THE ARTIST / ORGANISER
Miwa Komatsu (b.1984) is known for one of her artistic expressions, live painting, which is not a performance, but a solemn ritual, an awakening to the “Sense of Sacredness”. In 2019, Miwa Komatsu captivated the audience in Cleveland with a live painting performance at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, USA. Continuing her artistic journey, in 2022 and 2023, she showcased her talents with performances at Itsukushima Shrine in Japan and Mont-Saint-Michel City in France, respectively, marking a new chapter in her art career.Details
