Shunsuke Saiki

Saiki Shunsuke/Artist.

Born in Fukuoka Prefecture in 1987. Graduated from the Faculty of Arts at Kyushu Sangyo University. Influenced by subcultures such as manga and animation, he creates works that are set against the backdrop of the visual environment of the post-smartphone era, including video, the internet, and smartphones.

Influenced by the ideas of simulationism and sampling, he has been quoting and reconstructing existing images and information to visualize the contemporary sensibility where reality and fiction, the everyday and the virtual intersect. In recent years, he has used green screens and green canvases as the support for his works, reversing their function to explore a structure in which a device that originally erases the background illuminates "what is erased" and "what does not remain." He questions the contemporary image environment while finding meaning in excluded and invisible images.
