Drawing on emotions and memories that unexpectedly surface in everyday life, Shikura paints scenes in which these moments intertwine with the movements of the inner self. The artist engages thoughtfully not only with positive experiences but also with negative emotions, unfolding the intricate folds of the heart in search of its transparent layers.
