SHINGO TERASAWA believes that the world after COVID-19 will be transformed into a society
that values the peace of mind and the tranquility of the spiritual world, as the material civilization and money worshiping society collapse.
He says, “Mayhem will occur before the beginning of a new era.
The current chaotic state of this world may be necessary for the sublimation of the soul.”
TERASAWA also believes that this may be the Earth’s self-purifying process to manage the overgrowing human population.
In other words, this is the fetal movement of global consciousness that is about to be reborn into a new world.
For this exhibition, he painted artworks with the motif of those affected by Covid-19, and prays that this chaos will settle down as soon as possible and that the human race on earth will be led to a better world.

SHINGO TERASAWA がコロナ後の世界について思うところは、物質文明、拝金主義社会が崩壊し、
心のやすらぎ、精神世界の安寧を重んじる社会へと変遷してゆくようだと言う。
「新時代の始まりの前には騒乱はつきもの。混沌たるこの世界の現況は、魂の昇華には必要なものなのでしょう」とも。
あるいは増殖し過ぎた人類をふるいにかける地球の自浄作用なのかもしれない。
換言すれば、新たな世界に生まれ変わろうとする地球意識の胎動、といったものでしょうか。
今回の彼の作品たちは、新型コロナウイルスによるモチーフを元に、しかしこの混沌が少しでも早く収束すること、
また人類がより良き世界へ導かれること、への祈りをこめて描かれました。

SHINGO TERASAWA is a painter born in Shingu City, Wakayama and currently based in TOKYO. His prefecture is known for the UNESCO World Heritage Site, “KUMANO-KODO (ancient pilgrimage road)”.

He moved to Tokyo after entering University and at the age of 20, he started painting with acrylic. At that time, however, he was aspiring to become a musician. He played guitar in a rock band and finally got a major break. However in 2014, the band took a break.
Since then, he has devoted himself to painting.

The main concept of TERASAWA’s painting is to recreate KUMANO’s mystic sceneries into magically-colored nostalgic artworks.
However, this time, he painted these artworks with the motif of the global turmoil and economic chaos caused by the Covid-19, praying that this chaos will settle down as soon as possible and that the human race on earth will be led to a better world.

He held 5 solo exhibitions in Japan and won several prizes at art competitions.
