Soshiro Matsubara

Through installation, ceramics, painting, drawing and sculpture Soshiro Matsubara creates magical interiors that take a personal look at the depths of human emotions. His spatial installations explore intoxication, obsessive-ness, longing, and kinks through found objects, his own artworks, and historical anecdotes. They question perception, memory and constructions of identity through black humor, sophisticated art historical references, aesthetic dandyism and iconographic eccentricity. Through built structures and architectural interventions, Matsubara plays with the emotional and psychological relationship to space and personal memory.

His work was exhibited in various internationally renowned institutions such as Dortmunder Kunstverein, Dortmund;, MACRO – Museum of Contemporary Art, Rome; Haus am Waldsee, Berlin and FRAC Lorraine, Metz.
