From Saturday, November 1st to Sunday, November 30th, 2025, SHOLAYERED Nishi-Azabu will host an exhibition of works by the internationally acclaimed artist "WATARU KIMURA."
Pop yet imbued with a quiet warmth.
His unique world resonates with scent,
creating a new space.
On the day of the reception party, October 31st,
WATARU KIMURA himself will be in attendance.
He will draw portraits for those who wish.
It will be a heartwarming time for everyone to enjoy.
Please experience the live art that can only be found in this unique venue.
Join us for a one-night-only experience where scent and art intertwine.
The subtle atmosphere that cannot be fully conveyed through websites or images, and the resonance between the artworks and scents, will be presented as a special “privilege” that can only be enjoyed at the exhibition venue.
We sincerely look forward to your visit to the exhibition venue.
