Shinji Ohmaki (1971~)

Japanese artist Shinji Ohmaki finished his BFA and MFA at Tokyo University of the Arts and also participated in Vermont Studio Center (US) and Ssamzie Space (Korea) residency programs. Ohmaki invites the audience to actively experience his often larger-than-life installation works of art. Gallery Sun contemporary is proud to be the first Korean art gallery to exhibit Ohmaki’s newly completed two installation works from the ‘Echo’ series and other flat works of art. Continuing his consecutive tasks to wake the viewer’s sensors and create an original and unconventional environment at the art gallery through his works of art, the artist questions the symbiosis between the art world and the society with the help from the viewer’s participation and their reaction to the art.
Ohmaki also collaborated with the “Is It Waste?”- an exhibition now held at the Global Environment Information Center in Tokyo - which parallels with the question raised by the artist about the consumer goods, nature and the society. The upcoming Shanghai Contemporary Art Fair schedules a forum of curators and art critiques from all over the world to discuss about “what makes a contemporary art” where Ohmaki plans to share his thoughts and philosophy. His <Umaenosima: Paradise> and <Utakata: Bubbles> are currently part of Kyunggido Art Museum’s permanent collection.
