WOAW Gallery is pleased to debut Keita Shirayama’s first solo exhibition Everyday. The exhibition presents a series of abstract paintings inspired by his childhood memories in a nature-rich environment, exploring life and death, emotions, and the cycle of existence. Showcasing 12 Shirayama’s latest artworks, the exhibition will be on view from March 27 – April 26, 2024, at 5 Sun Street, Wan Chai. 
Everyday, a solo and debut exhibition of the Osaka-based artist Keita Shirayama, showcases paintings of imaginary scenes based on the artist’s childhood memories in a nature-rich environment. Shirayama’s works are built upon his deeply rooted memories and experience growing up in Asago city, where high mountains with significant seasonal nature sceneries surround it. It was a great part of Shirayama’s early life experiencing the constant renewal of seasons and its permanent cycle in his hometown. These aspects deeply affect his artistic perspective and approach to art. The scenes captured in his paintings are created in his mind with his memories, often with an abundance of natural elements and ambiguous depictions of subjects.

Opening reception: 18:00 - 20:00
