Profile of Yukyo Yamamoto
Yukyo Yamamoto
Yukyo Yamamoto
91.0×91.0cm
178.0×132.0cm
4F
Born in Kyoto in 1988.
He completed the master’s course at the Kyoto University of Art and Design in 2013.
Yukyo Yamamoto expresses various things using familiar and trivial objects such as a Japanese one-yen coin or a grain of rice. With the artist’s worldview that “things that are right, there are connected to everything else,” he reexamines everyday values and their connection to contemporary society. He has gradually begun to make his presence felt at art fairs and galleries in Japan and abroad. He has received numerous awards and accolades.
