The Walter Wickiser Gallery announces the solo exhibition The Amplitude of Nature, works by Katsuhiro Kuramoto on display.

“Katsuhiro Kuramoto has been an artist since he was a child. In elementary school, his homeroom teacher, an art teacher by chance, saw a painting by Kuramoto and submitted it to a competition held by the Osaka Art Museum. As it turned out, the young artist won the prize. Kuramoto's compositions resonate with his memories of childhood. Modeled with resin clay, Kuramoto uses gold, silver, and platinum foil to build a composition that is mesmerizing in its effects. A higher consciousness is the goal of the artist, who worships nature in the form of carp, flowers, and butterflies. As a result, Kuramoto's choice of a simple but telling imagery goes along well with the
positive notions of Shintoism, its emphasis on harmony and world order.”*
