Ken’ichi Matsubara is an artist born in Japan and living in Düsseldorf, Germany. He uses diverse media to create works related to the appearance and history of various spaces. He observes spaces such as architectural elements, urban structures, landscapes and political boundaries as containers of consciousness and memories, and attempts to capture the thoughts and emotions reflected there. In his works, these spaces are dismantled and reconstructed in their unique ways to question how we understand and imagine the world.
