New Dracula Theater arises to present Daemons by Nanse Kawashima; an exhibition of works on paper inaugurating our new space. The exhibition ran from September 27th to October 25th, 2025.

Reflective of her life's journey, Nanse has depicted, through channeling, various entities that enter into her life. Under the name of Sibylline Vein, Nanse currently works as a healing practitioner, working with reiki, tarot and psychic channeling. She offers group reiki & sound sessions called Somatic Resonance in collaboration with Sound Artist Bryce Hackford.

New Dracula Theater has produced a video interview with Nanse wherein she discusses the first piece that led to this body of work, wherein she channeled, and depicted, the spirit of her beloved dog, Nico.

In antiquity, Daemons were viewed as a variety of personifications such as spirits, forces of nature, deities themselves, or deceased loved ones. Daemons were thought of as unseen forces that could be good or evil. In modern spirituality, they are often understood as guides or spiritual entities. Nanse's work explores these concepts through her unique artistic lens, inviting viewers to contemplate the unseen forces that shape our lives.
