Takemoto Shinya
Born in 2002 in Ehime, live in Tokyo
2025 Graduated from the Department of Architecture, Faculty of Fine Arts, Musashino Art University
After graduating from university in 2025, he began pursuing an artistic practice while working as a company employee. He currently works in retail interior design.
Using familiar materials such as plastic bottles, he explores organic and soft forms of expression that seem to breathe life into inorganic objects. By revisiting things and phenomena that often go unnoticed in everyday life, the work seeks to evoke new sensations and emotions.
He is drawn to things that are natural and unpretentious.
He aims to create works that gently open drawers of memory—awakening sensations that linger somewhere in the mind, childhood curiosity, and nostalgic recollections that may have been nearly forgotten. Through a quiet engagement with each viewer’s own memories and perceptions, he strives to create expressions that are gentle and delicate yet possess an underlying strength.
