Yuichi Ikehata’s Powerful Sculptures of Physical Fragments

Yuki Ikehata, a Japanese sculptor and photographer, created a cold scene to fill the gap between reality and fiction. In his surreal series "Fragment Long-Term-Term Memory" his aim is to comment on the fragmentary nature of memory and make it physically. "Many parts of our memories are forgotten or difficult to recall, I will regain the fragmented moments and reconstruct them into a surreal image I am convinced of the reality We collect together these misplaced memories and work together to create nonlinear narratives resonating with each other in my picture, "he said

Mr. Ikehata now lives in Chiba prefecture and uses scaffolds that match the shape of the human body (imitating himself) before covering it piece-wise with paper and clay. This effect is destructive and exploratory. These sculptures seem to be rotten, but they also make the physical shape stand out. Ikehata aims to explore the ambiguous distinction between reality and fiction. "Reality is the key to entering the unreal world, the truth is the key to winning reality." There is a sculpture of Ikita between reality and unreality. It is human, but it is industrial; they are intimate but alienated

Many of his sculptures feel hopeless; open fingers, twisted toes, hostile face. In his most ambitious sculpture, the perfect form of the human body, this personality seems to be almost blown away and the body falls to reveal the mechanical underlying structure. Self-portrait of these sculptures shows a ghost-like pale lightness and gaze staring at the white eye indicating sickness. Perhaps or because of this darkness, poetic sensibility penetrates a series of Ekta: "I collect debris," he said. "Edit them, organize them, and capture them."

The Japanese artist Yuichi Ikebata's series "LTM" combines the sense of decline of an unforgettable human and combines the future feeling that our body does not look like them. Ikehata 's sculpture works delicately combines digital and physical components, creating a portrait of a surrealist that is neither realistic nor imaginary. The images that make up the "LTM fragment" begin with lines, paper, clay and carefully carved into the anatomical frame of a person's arms, legs and head. After physical implementation, ikehata digitally adds surreal photographic elements (skin, eyes, hair, nails, etc.) to the twisted metal cable network.

"Realistic and unrealistic world" said Mr. Yuichi Ikehata, "It is very close, so it can not be said that they are almost exactly one," he said. We use reality as key touch for unreality, sometimes with unrealistic key touch reality. The reality is beautiful, sad, interesting, and complete ... fragments cut from reality show a fictitious world. I collect, edit, organize, and capture pieces of my work. This is a pure myth. But this is my real world.
