Born in Iwate, Japan in 1977, Shimizu developed a strong interest in art as a child. However, he only began reflecting upon an artistic career in his early twenties. Shimizu obtained a degree in science from Aoyama Gakuin University, and upon graduation in 1999, was employed by the Nippon Electric Company. However, a few years later, he left his post and enrolled in the Oil Painting Course at the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music. Shimizu has participated in several solo and group exhibitions in Tokyo, including a special showcase of emerging Japanese artists held in New York. iPRECIATION Singapore showcased Shimizu’s works at a group exhibition of emerging Japanese artists in April 2010, and is delighted to present the artists new creations in an inaugural solo show in April 2011.
