synfilums—the duo of Shin Kikuchi (founder of SCHOLE) and pianist/composer Itoko Toma—presents Landscape of the synonym:antonym, a collection of spatial soundscapes created as the spatial audio for their April 2026 exhibition, "synonym:antonym."

This ambient album immerses listeners in the interconnected worlds of their fourth album, synonym (inspired by Japan’s cherry blossoms), and fifth album, antonym. Using piano reverb recorded at the exhibition venue "SALO," Kikuchi layers bass, steel guitar, and field recordings from Natsuki Takayama's atelier, while Toma weaves in vivid piano and synthesizer textures. Enhanced by a one-time exhibition collaboration with contemporary artist Natsuki Takayama, the music drifts like mist—evoking translucent cherry blossom petals and inviting you to truly experience the exhibition space.

This release is a 60-page, A5-size photobook documenting the exhibition, accompanied by the CD Landscape of the synonym:antonym. Photographed by Shin Kikuchi and Mao Kokubu, the book captures the quiet atmosphere of the venue "SALO," Natsuki Takayama’s delicate yet dynamic artworks, and the interplay of light and space—offering a visual experience deepened by the included music.
