About

Kensuke Koike was born in 1980 in Nagoya, Japan. His research focuses on the origins of imagination and the variations of human perception.
Mainly through the means of collage, photo-collage, installation and sculpture, in his artistic practice he performs a transformation of objects and images into artworks. Only after their conversion into art, they reveal their most unusual aspects and characteristics. The subjective as well as the common and public perception discovers therefore an entirely new way of looking at them.
The artist is searching for a perfect collage and perfect image processing. Just like an alchemist Kensuke Koike is using everyday materials, producing art.
