From February 14th till March 30th, 2015; Dorothy Circus Gallery (Rome, Italy) is presenting Kazuki Takamatsu’s new series of distinctive and powerful depthmap-like paintings of eerily beautiful half-doll girls. His holograph-like paintings are executed entirely by hand. With his precise understanding and sensitivity concerning the moods, thoughts, and feelings of young people in Japan, he brings his subjects to life. Through his paintings, he expresses his views on the power of Japanese technological development, the sad awareness of earthquake and tsunami, as well as Japan’s high suicide rate.
