Hiraki Sawa

Memorial Park Area

Born in Ishikawa prefecture in 1977. He received his BFA from the University of East London and his MFA from the Slade School of Art at University College London 2003. He lives in London. By combining images, 3D and 2D works, and developing a space / time installation composed of them, he expresses his own world view. From the repetitive movement that goes back and forth between one's own memory and the memory of others, he is developing a group of works that sheds light on a specific motif and raises a certain kind of universality and fragility and nostalgia. His work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Museo Universidad de Navarra , Spain, 2019;Kanagawa Arts Theater, Japan, 2018;Tokyo Opera City gallery, Japan, 2014; Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, Canada, 2014, and so on. His works are included in the public collections of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Smithsonian Institute, Washington, US; Art Gallery of New South Wales,Sydney, AU; the National International Museum, Osaka, Japan; Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, Tokyo, Japan; Hayward Gallery, London, United Kingdom, and so on.

Hiraki Sawa’s installations convey his unique worldview through videos, sculptures, and two-dimensional works. “I don’t know when it started, but I came to think that this world is made up of illusions. Illusion is a very delicate and extremely dynamic state that can only be established as a result of the will or strong desire to believe in the imagination. And I wonder if illusion is like a kind of natural phenomenon, like fog, that emerges from one’s own imagination and desires.” (Hiraki Sawa)
