SHIN Masaharu
Concept
Shin makes Art as a result of his willingness to explore how painting is today perceived by society and how this perception evolved over history. As an artist, Shin is indeed fascinated by the different meanings and stances Art has conveyed in our society over time. Shin's approach ultimately questions the significance of Art in today's life and brings tools to form answers to this essential matter. His work is a great expression of Contemporary Art, of what it means for viewers and for ecosystems it evolves in.
