This is the public profile of Nakamura Kazunobu, click here to view our interview with Nakamura KazunobuAbout Nakamura Kazunobu : I liked the dynamic composition and dynamic curves of the paintings by the Japanese painter Eitoku Kano, Tohaku Hasegawa and Katsushika Hokusai.
When I was young, I wanted to copy their paintings and get to know their essence.
Nowadays, I design my work with the idea that I want to enter the space of the great waves depicted in their paintings and stand in a place where I am wrapped up in their flow.
STATEMENT OF ART:When I was young, I wanted to copy their paintings and get to know their essence.
Nowadays, I design my work with the idea that I want to enter the space of the great waves depicted in their paintings and stand in a place where I am wrapped up in their flow.
The concept of my design work is as follows.
I would like to create a place where you can feel the presence of the air filled with haze and fog through artwork that seems to dance in the air. I also hope that the artwork will be as beautiful a shape as the flow of water and air. I try to design artwork that creates such a space through sculptural shape composed of primitive elements such as points, lines, and surfaces.
This is because the beauty of Japanese space is created by the shades of shadows created by the ephemeral and weak light. It is also the Japanese sense of beauty in space, as discussed by Junichiro Tanizaki in his “In Praise of Shadows”. This means that I am not designing for the purpose of manipulating the shape itself, but for the effect that the shape will have by manipulating the shape. I aim to design spatial works in such a way.
