Keita Morimoto, a talented artist, captures the essence of urban environments in his latest body of work titled “To Nowhere and Back.” His paintings depict familiar scenes such as corner stores, vending machines, and lampposts in a way that invites viewers to pause and reflect on the transient nature of cities. Morimoto’s use of light and shadow creates a cinematic quality, transforming ordinary streets into intriguing landscapes.

In his statement, Morimoto explains that his work explores the feeling of never fully belonging, reflecting on the human experience of navigating conflict, loneliness, and the desire to escape within urban settings. The artist draws inspiration from his own experiences of moving from Osaka to Canada at a young age and later returning to Japan, where even his birthplace felt unfamiliar at times.

Morimoto’s paintings highlight the interplay of artificial light sources, such as vending machines and streetlights, which he sees as creating a “robotic harmony” in Japanese urban life. These light sources become characters in their own right, illuminating the darkness and drawing attention to the often overlooked details of city streets.

The artist’s exhibition, “To Nowhere and Back,” will be on display at Almine Rech in Tribeca from March 14 to April 26. Viewers can expect to see a series of acrylic and oil paintings that capture the essence of New York City and Tokyo, offering a glimpse into the artist’s unique perspective on urban environments.

Morimoto’s work invites viewers to contemplate the ever-changing nature of cities and the connections we form within them. Through his paintings, he reveals deeper truths about the human experience and the ways in which emotions can transform familiar settings into something entirely different. Follow Morimoto on Instagram for more updates on his captivating artwork.
