SHINBO Hiroshi SculptureExhibition
“HITOGATA GATARI”
A boy wanted a vinyl doll of Tiger Mask ( Hero of Japanese manga ).
He finally got it then he slept together with the doll from the first night.
The smell of the fresh vinyl doll was etched into his nose and
the memory retained long time.
Before I know, my impression is that I was fascinated by HITOGATA (Figure).
When I was in the kanazawa College of Art, I was more interested in
the drama rather than Art.
After graduated the college, I entered an under-ground drama group
in Tokyo and spent my time as actor for a few years.
Even today, after I moved back to sculpture from the drama, I am
spinning out images of HITOGATA by picturing drama space having
the extraordinary in the ordinary.
HITOGATA is an actor on stage in my delusional stories.
It may appear in opening or in finale.
The leading character exists in vague stories without having concluded scenario.
You audiences are expected to compose the scenario by facing
the HITOGATA then the story will be completed.
I am the boy who slept with holding his vinyl Tiger mask.
Now, the boy grown and creates HITOGATA as his hero and continue to
seek his ease/ contentment/ peace of mind.
