FabUK Magazine is proud to attend the highly anticipated Folded Memories exhibition in London, celebrating the exceptional work of Japanese contemporary artist Kazuya Shibagaki. Representing the FabUK Magazine team, Kitty Noofah joins creatives, curators, and art enthusiasts for an inspiring cultural experience hosted by VVArts
Taking place from 18–26 May 2026 at 261 City Road, London EC1V 1AG, the exhibition officially opens with a special reception on 20 May at 7PM, welcoming guests into an immersive world of contemporary Japanese artistic expression.
A Celebration of Memory Through Art
The exhibition explores the emotional depth of memory and the transformative beauty found within everyday experiences. Through layered textures, expressive compositions, and atmospheric tones, Kazuya Shibagaki presents artworks that invite viewers into moments of reflection, imagination, and emotional connection.
The title Folded Memories symbolises the way memories evolve over time — folded, reshaped, and preserved through human experience. Each piece carries a unique visual narrative that blends contemporary abstraction with poetic storytelling.
A Cultural Experience in the Heart of London
Hosted in the vibrant creative district of East London, the exhibition highlights the growing connection between international contemporary art and London’s diverse cultural landscape. The intimate setting creates the perfect environment for audiences to engage deeply with the artist’s work and philosophy.
FabUK Magazine and Kitty Noofah recognises the importance of supporting visionary international artists whose work inspires dialogue across cultures and creative industries.
