DAIKI NISHIMURA
BIO
Daiki Nishimura was born in Osaka, Japan in 1985. He has been exhibiting his art works at many Japanese Buddhism Temples such as Fugenin, Koyasan, Wakayama and Honenin in Kyoto, Japan. His simple compositions, minimum color palette, and solid textures creates the atmosphere of timelessness. In front of his strong images, the viewers can see fragments of landscapes, but stay in infinite space.
