Introduction
Kinikura Norikazu's "Color Landscape" showcases the artist's delicate and multi-layered perceptions through a rich visual tension. By means of organic brushwork and spatial arrangement, the artist explores the relationship between color, memory, and the perception of the world in an abstract yet poetic manner. The overlapping and intertwining of multiple layers of color create a distant, ever-expanding visual space that evokes the imagery of cosmic nebulae or the traces of an inner stream of consciousness. The overall work is imbued with a tranquil atmosphere reminiscent of Eastern Zen teachings, highlighting unique aesthetic connotations and spiritual tension within a contemporary context.
