Kazuki Takamatsu's Ethereal Women at Dorothy Circus Gallery in Rome

exhibition · 2026-05-04

Kazuki Takamatsu (b. 1978, Sendai) presents a series of ghostly female figures at Dorothy Circus Gallery in Rome. The works feature white and gray, translucent young women floating on black backgrounds, often wearing gas masks and mini-dresses, evoking distance and sensuality. Japanese iconographic elements like chrysanthemums appear. Takamatsu's process blends 3D modeling, photo-editing software, and final acrylic hand-painting on printed supports. The exhibition is curated by Barbara Di Tanna.
