PODIUM is proud to present “Phantom(’s) Presence”, Rotterdam-based Japanese artist Shimon Kamada’s first solo presentation with the gallery and in his career.

In this new body of work, Kamada draws from his photo archives that span his childhood and teenage years in his hometown in Japan, conjuring realms where these images drift, overlap, and intertwine like fragmented memories.

From hometown streets and domestic settings to scenes of natural sublimity and surreal dreamscapes; the artist bathes each composition in skewed light, melancholic shadows, and psychological tension to render a series of enigmatic narratives, revealing the fragile and elusive nature of remembrance.

Opening reception: 13 June (Sat) from 2 to 7 PM

Gallery address: Unit 9D, E Tat Factory Building, 4 Heung Yip Road, Wong Chuk Hang
