Satoshi Hirose
Satoshi Hirose (1963) employs a wide range of materials and languages in his work, spanning from installations to environmental interventions, from performance to sculpture, from photography to drawing. Movement, change, instability, the undefined, lightness, arbitrariness, and the ephemeral are at the core of his research, that embraces a dense spectrum of concepts through the idea of “possibility”—a unifying element that creates an overall fluidity. To express the purity and essentiality of everyday life, he draws upon associations of ideas rooted in different cultures around the world. A frequent traveler and keen observer of the many realities he encounters and absorbs, he adopts this form of knowledge as the starting point of his artistic practice.
