Shintaro Ohata, born in Hiroshima, Japan, is a very unique
artist focusing on two mediums, painting and sculpture together in a cohesive
manner. I really like how he is able to
blend sculpture with painting to make a
scene with movement that comes to life.
In this piece, Ohata is displaying a girl having fun playing in a busy
city at night. At least, this is the
ideal I receive from this artwork. I
want to try to blend my project together with multiple mediums and painting or
drawing combined with wire and wood, etc, seems to be a ideal path to take to create
my project.
Shintaro
Ohata inspires me to be more dynamic in my process of creating my project because
of the way he displays his unique style of bringing a scene to life by placing
sculptures in front of paintings. However, I may take a different approach by
using many mediums together abstractly on one structure without a background
like Ohata displays here. Furthermore, Shintaro
Ohata’s style is definitely one of my favorite I have observed out of the
artists I have researched because of his ability to portray movement with
figures that have realistic qualities.
