+ OVERVIEW
Hiroyuki Matsuura participated in the "Fiction Love-Ultra New Vision in Contemporary Art" international exhibition held by the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei with his work "Yellow", his works represent a new generation of art which cares more about life in the modern world and reality. His animation-and-comics-influenced ideas, are accompanied by clear and precise lines and vibrant colors – all of these "aesthetic" elements were developed by everyone after comics and cartoons were invented. Hiroyuki Matsuura elaborates his graphic design skills, brings out those "virtual characters" from our memories, and creates the foundation for the audience to indentify contemporary art. In fact, stories or plots in the so-called "Animation and Comics" world already reflect our lives in reality; and Hiroyuki handles the picture with his "lat" technique, re-interprets the conservative traditional Japanese aesthetic via a humorous way out of the young generation, paying more attention to the stimulation of the senses.
