Hiroyuki Aoyama paints a motif that makes the viewer feels nostalgia with a pure passion.
Such as colorful candies and clear bottles of the lemonade invite everyone to his vivid pop world.
In this world, angels are the familiar motif. Sometimes they appear and connect the viewer and his world. We try to focus on the angels and will create a joyful space like a garden where angels play. The viewer can touch the new Aoyama’s various worlds from new works, which include sculptures exhibited for the first time. Please do not miss this chance to see ever-changing Hiroyuki Aoyama’s works. Aoyama has not drawn angels in esquisse. On the way of his executing, the will to draw angels occurs to him. At last, he paints it automatically at the place he feels “I want to be there and see the world from there like an angel”. However, the artist comes to treat angels on purpose and put them on a canvas after layout in esquisse recently. “An angel was just an attachment for me until now. But I start thinking I may be able to create a scene around angels by focusing on them.” The angels above clouds are painted dynamically filling up the canvas. We can read their facial expression more directly than before. Moreover the background is painted freely and create fantastic atmosphere that differs from the daily scenes Aoyama used to paint. It seems that the angels scintillate their energy more freshly without any inhibition. After his child was born, Aoyama began painting angels. It may be said that not only his children but also angels in his pictures grow up with the passage of time. * The text provided by YOKOI FINE ART.
