memory of temporary by Shunsuke Kawasaki

Statement
Made of ABS, a type of plastic that is easy to work with, durable and
totally non-biodegradable, My sculptures, the robot-shaped creatures
that resemble nothing that nature would offer, symbolize the destruction
of the environment and creation of its?artificial replacement.
In a sense, these sculptures are extension of the own deep desire to
create, destroy and recreate things.
Paintings, on the other hand, represent the idea of “ultimate destruction.
” Each of intricately and smoothly drawn lines and curves represents a life.
These lines combine to create images that look like?cells of living
organisms.?They emit a positive energy that makes you appreciate life.
Even the idea?of?inevitable death that follows life seems to become
easier to accept “Our life is basically a repetition of?act of creation
and?destruction. Every new creation requires destruction of something old,
and every?destruction leads to a new creation,”
