Happy New Year
As we enter the age of AI, the rapid spread of social media is reshaping Japan and the
world at remarkable speed.
In 1996, the exhibition “Heroes of 20th Century Modern Physics” was held at Maruzen
Nihonbashi in Tokyo. Alongside archival materials of great physicists such as Dr. Albert
Einstein, my paintings were exhibited.
The introductory panel, titled “The World of Love, Peace, and the Universe (The
Quantum Universe)”, described my work as follows:
“In Horimoto’s paintings, the world that Dr. Einstein sought takes shape as art, bringing
us deep inspiration and emotion.”
Thirty years have passed since then.
At a department-store exhibition last year, several visitors approached me – one after
another – saying,
“These paintings depict the world of the quantum universe, don’t they?”
In that moment, I was deeply moved.
I felt that the time had finally come when people could understand my paintings
intuitively, without any explanation.
From here on, I hope to explore even more freely the realms of the quantum
universe and vibration – in other words, the inner world of the soul that I have long
pursued.
This year as well, my solo exhibition
“Messages of Universal Love” – by Emiko Horimoto –
will be held at:
• Mitsukoshi Nagoya Sakae – April 15-21
• Matsuzakaya Ueno, Tokyo – July 22-28
・Isetan Nîgata, Aug.26-Sept.1
I would be delighted if you could experience, through these works of “quantum” and
“soul” that look toward the future, a sense of peace and renewed life-energy.
Thank you very much for your continued support in the coming year.
