Eye-Popping Sculpture-Paintings by Shintaro Ohata

Japanese artist Shintaro Ohata has a unique characteristic style – he places sculptures in front of paintings and shows them as one work, a combination of 2-D and 3-D – the two perfectly blending into each other. In a recently concluded exhibition entitled ‘Everyday life’ in Tokyo, Ohata said, “Every ordinary scenery in our daily lives, such as the rising sun, the beauty of a sunset or a glittering road paved with asphalt on a rainy night, becomes something irreplaceable if we think we wouldn’t be able to see them anymore. I am creating works to capture lights in our everyday life and record them in the painting.”
