Kozo is coming to Boston!
Boston, MA — We are so thrilled to be hosting Kozo for his first solo exhibition in Boston on May 16th at our flagship gallery!
What distinguishes Kozo is not only what he paints, but how he paints. His process is marked by meditation and precision. Each stroke appears deliberate, yet divinely spontaneous, as though channeled rather than executed. He treats his canvases as sacred objects — vessels not only for color, but for spiritual offering. Please RSVP to join us in the gallery Friday night from 6 to 8 p.m. to meet and cheers with a glass of champagne, to the famed artist and his stunning collection on display.

Kozo’s iconography is deeply layered. Gold leaf halos radiate around celestial figures. Bodhisattvas, warriors and sirens emerge from dreamlike fields of symbolic architecture. Every element is chosen for its significance — its visual, cultural, and emotional weight. The result is a body of work that feels less like contemporary art and more like a modern altar.
There is a duality to his technique. On one level, he is a master technician — his line work refined, his layering precise. On another, he functions as a kind of visual poet. His works evoke the silence of temples, the chaos of street life, and the tenderness of ancient ceremony, all within a single frame.
This evening will gather an elite and discerning audience, composed of collectors, curators, aesthetes and seekers. Beneath the chandeliers and among the chatter of connoisseurs, Kozo’s pieces will shimmer with layered textures, as if lit from within. The atmosphere promises a fusion of old-world grandeur and new-world disruption, where reverence meets rebellion in one exquisite breath.
