Ken Ishida

In this society, we are surrounded by various “concepts”, and sometimes they make us difficult to identify our trueand reality of existence.
When they are taken away, the value of our original existence will be emerged.
What if the concept of “time” did not exist? What if the concept of “life and death” did not exist?
I believe the truth we reach after all is something noble, beautiful and precious.

1994  From Chiba Prefecture
2017  Graduated from Department of Photography, Nihon University College of Arts
Park Nahyun

"Virtual" means, existing in the mind, especially as a product of the imagination, not only things computers created. My works represent icons that we usually create in SNS or posted images with hashtag, and the masks has visualized "inner side" hidden behind the face of real world.  "Virtual Identity", Self-expression of the people in the virtual space, is something between virtual and reality, which boundary lines has been destroyed. Since 2014, using own old clothes I've been wearing, I am in the process of transforming into a new identity through the wearing of cloths and accessories.

In Yasui's work, there is mixture of the landscape of the reality and

Especially, the view-point of each persona in stories is dramatically impressive.
