Izumi Kato Sculpture @ K11 MUSEA
Japanese artist Izumi Kato's art practice is a journey into our own sense of humanity which begins at the point of convergence between imagination and reality. Untitled (2021), Kato’s sculpture trio displayed at K11 MUSEA, is the first bronze variation born from his stone sculpture series.
With Untitled, Kato conveys the organic shape of stones in a stack of partially hand-painted bronze blocks, marking a departure from previous works in both form and origin. Each sculpture portrays Kato’s iconic wideeyed humanoid creature, at once evoking a soft sense of primitivism while also alluding to the far-flung future
《無題》是一組3件的青銅雕塑，延伸自加藤泉2016年開始創作的石頭系列。該系列靈感及媒材源自香港海岸工作室附近的堆填區，通過鑄銅保留石塊的原始形狀，銅塊呈現手繪圖案，標誌著藝術家在創作形式及材料上的新嘗試。加藤將整個展示空間模擬成海中的一座小島，與近在咫尺的維多利亞港互相輝映。
Location: K11 Sculpture Park, 6F, K11 MUSEA
