Nobuaki Onishi

 

Born 1972 in Okayama, Japan

Nobuaki Onishi creates super-real objects using resin and paints with incredible prowess. The result is a finished piece that could be mistaken for the real thing.
He asks us what is real or imitation in this world of mass digitization. He believes that "All things are surfaces. "
Onishi doubts whether people have a keen eye for what is real and what is artificial.

 

Lives and works in Kyoto, Japan
