Kentaro Shimoyama
Title:
City Lights
Description:
“City Lights” was created by deconstructing and reconstructing the motifs of streetlights, the moon, windows, rooms, and room lights that had previously been depicted in other paintings. Against the backdrop of the sky and the moon, the circular streetlights and the images depicted in the paintings hang in the air as if shifting sideways and all connected.
