Phantoms in Between brings together the works of seven Contemporary Japanese artists, exploring how reality is distorted, restructured and reimagined in the mind of the artist. This exhibition demonstrates how artists channel bold colors and forms to transmute myth, memory, and the mundane into a unique visual lexicon—broadening one's perception and understanding of contemporary Japanese art. 

Together, these pieces go beyond mere representation, challenging viewer’s ingrained grasp of reality: Kei Hiraga’s grotesque human comedy, Akio Ohmori’s bronze depictions of enigmatic, spirit-laden beings; Kazuyuki Takishita’s childlike apparitions; Mitsuko Kuroki's solemn yet psychedelic goddesses; Keiichi Tanaami's trauma forged into dazzling aquarium dioramas; REMA's faceless mermaids drifting between apocalyptic prophecy and social critique; and Rika Oshima's canvases imbued with quiet prayers for happiness. Each piece is a world of its own, and we invite you to step into this space and witness, together with us, these landscapes of the mind where reality and illusion converge.
