BLINKING – Yasuhiro Suzuki

Yasuhiro Suzuki | b. 1979 | is an artist designer. Suzuki does not meet the conventional definition of a designer because his creations are not limited only to aesthetic and useful products. His designs improve our quality of life, thanks to the encounter between them and the environment in which we live.

In a scientific approach interwoven with fine humor, Suzuki expresses his inner world and the way he looks at and experiences the world and the environment. Everyday experiences of joy and fear take center stage in his works. With great talent, Suzuki disassociates objects from their daily and familiar use, and gives them a new identity. Thus, cabbage leaves turn into a bowl, a gun shoots eyedrops and a tree’s leaves are replaced with eyes. Suzuki blurs the line between humans and nature – nature appears in the human body and Man is assimilated into nature.

Illustrations, seemingly simple, are an integral part of his creative process, and through them Suzuki reveals the mechanism of his thoughts. The explanations that accompany the exhibits were written by the artist. The exhibition makes accessible product, illustration, and text, the three dimensions in which the artist deals.
