Art Exhibition by KAISO
Exhibition period: 2025.10.08 ~ 12.31
A moment of tranquility embodied in the exhibition theme "Deep Quietness."
I'm KAISO, an artist originally from Ibaraki Prefecture and currently living in Tokyo. I graduated from the Graphic Design Department of Toyo Art School, majoring in Artist, and began working full-time in 2018. In my work, I aim to carefully portray the gentleness that lies in silence and the small light that lurks deep within the heart.
When I first started working on this project in 2019, I was able to quickly create the images I wanted to paint, but as I gained more experience, the things I thought about and wanted to do increased, and it began to take me longer to put my brush to work. The time I spend facing each piece, while struggling, has become an important part of the creative process for me now.
The theme of this exhibition is "Shinkan."
I wanted to express the moment when, in the quiet of the mind in nature, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, important things suddenly come to mind. I chose works that have a calming atmosphere, so that I can have a dialogue between myself and the work.
The main visual for this exhibition is "Snow Globe 4 - First Snow" (the work on the bottom right of the stairs).
I painted this piece once in 2023, then revised and added to it the following year in 2024, and it is finally complete. Having grown up in an area where it hardly ever snows, snow is something special and something I long for. I created this fantasy world to express the excitement I feel when the first snow falls, and the anticipation of what kind of winter awaits me beyond.
In my daily art production, I place great importance on abandoning my desires and not thinking about anything, and focusing on depicting a gentle world.
We hope that guests staying at the hotel during the exhibition period will be able to experience the gentle textures and colors of the original artwork while watching the fire or enjoying a cup of coffee, as part of the special, extraordinary space.
Please enjoy this special time, only available at hotel norm.fuji, with the artworks at your leisure.
