Hard Boiled Daydream (Sculpture/Spook/Osaka)

Artist: KANEUJI Teppei

I have been creating artworks by liberating everyday objects from their conventional scale, value, meaning, and function, then connecting them in new ways. Small, fictional images—such as those found in manga and illustrations—are enlarged and fused with physical materials, generating entirely new impressions. By weaving these elements together into a single piece, a new narrative emerges, creating a space that fluidly moves between two-dimensional and three-dimensional realms, fiction and reality, the personal and the public, as well as the past, present, and future.
