Hugo Yoshikawa is a young artist who mainly draws inspiration from nature, from its diverse forms and myriad colours.<\/p>\n
Born in Tokyo and raised between Paris, Bangkok, and New York, he graduated from Camberwell College of Art in London. Yoshikawa took his first steps as an illustrator in Madrid and later devoted himself to art in a broader sense, yet always maintained an original, graphic, whimsical, and sometimes naive style that still characterizes his work today.<\/p>\n
To ignite his imagination as a child and push him to cultivate the art of illustration, especially influential were the bandes dessin\u00e9es. These are the comic strips of the Franco-Belgian school, considered in those countries as real coming-of-age novels. One such series was the adventures of Spirou and Fantasio, two journalists facing various vicissitudes and aided by the faithful and ubiquitous squirrel Spip.<\/p>\n
In the imaginative world of this French-Japanese artist, nature enters the home and envelops everyday objects. Tree roots infiltrate between tables and chairs, leaves float freely in the air, flowers bloom from milk cartons, and citrus fruits hang from laundry lines like laundry itself. It\u2019s a world of fantasy, permeated by the emotions often found at the heart of haiku poetry \u2013 the central theme of nature with all its mysteries. It\u2019s also an expression of traditional Japanese manga culture.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_raw_html css=””]JTBBJTNDdmlkZW8lMjBjb250cm9scyUyMHdpZHRoJTNEJTIyMTAwJTI1JTIyJTIwcHJlbG9hZCUzRCUyMm1ldGFkYXRhJTIyJTNFJTBBJTIwJTIwJTIwJTIwJTNDc291cmNlJTIwc3JjJTNEJTIyaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cucGFvbGFsZW50aS5pdCUyRndwLWNvbnRlbnQlMkZ1cGxvYWRzJTJGMjAyMyUyRjEwJTJGRklOQUwubXA0JTIyJTIwdHlwZSUzRCUyMnZpZGVvJTJGbXA0JTIyJTNFJTBBJTNDJTJGdmlkZW8lM0UlMEElMEElMEE=[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”content-row-width” css=”.vc_custom_1746768917156{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”In Paola Lenti\u2019s project philosophy, nature is less anarchic and eccentric, but the borders between indoor and outdoor are just conceptual boundaries.
