Nishimoto finished a master’s degree in Art and Design at the University of Tsukuba and has started a career as an artist since he graduated.
Nishimoto has kept his consistent approach since his debut, which is the exhibition ‘NEOLOGISM’ until now.
His work seems hard to understand because of his visualities which are inspired by philosophy with his unique point of view, however, his installation space has an overwhelming impact that will be retained in the memories of viewers.

Gallery Information
TEZUKAYAMA GALLERY
The gallery was opened in 1992 by Ryoichi Matsuo. It was originally located in Tezukayama, a residential suburb of Osaka. In March 2010 the gallery moved to Minami-Horie. In this new space, the gallery was renewed as a contemporary art gallery and named ‘Tezukayama Gallery’, after its original birth-place. Since it’s opening as a contemporary art gallery, the gallery has been giving emerging Japanese artists the opportunity to exhibit their work, both in the gallery and abroad. Exciting, contemporary art from current Japanese artists is the primary focus of the gallery.
In April 2016 we opened the Viewing Room. As well as the works of artists other than those exhibited, we also display works from the gallery collection in this space.
