{"product_id":"kobayashi-hiroshi-shenton-park-18328","title":"Hiroshi Kobayashi 'Shenton Park'","description":"\u003cp\u003eHiroshi Kobayashi is a Perth-based experimental artist whose practice, which he calls ‘Patagraphy’, merges computation, custom-built machinery, and painting. Translating written text, geometric structures, and photography into vector-based formations, Kobayashi’s innovative approach challenges our understanding of what printmaking, painting, and digital art can look like. Through his practice, programmed precision meets the contingencies of fluid mark-making, resulting in works that are richly layered and instantly visually intriguing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn ‘Shenton Park’, the natural scenery of  parkland in Perth appears at once familiar and otherworldly, as if captured through a fish-eye lens. Presented within a spherical form, the image takes on a globe-like quality, almost as though viewed from a distant planet. Rendered in vibrant, highly saturated colours, Kobayashi infuses the work with an energetic sense of mystery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally from Japan, Kobayashi has exhibited extensively across the world, including in Taipei, Seoul, New York, and Tokyo. Since migrating to Perth in 2015, he has been selected as a finalist in several national art prizes, including the Perth Royal Art Prize, which he won in 2024. For collectors fascinated by the creative possibilities of printmaking, Kobayashi’s works offer an intriguing and important discovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/collections\/hiroshi-kobayashi\"\u003eHiroshi KOBAYASHI\u003c\/a\u003e (1967 - )\u003cbr\u003e'Shenton Park' 2022\u003cbr\u003ePigment marker on paper\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 23 x 23 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 42 x 30 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Signed lower right; Dated and initialed in plate lower left. \u003cbr\u003eComes with Letter of Provenance\u003cbr\u003eCondition:\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(c) The Artist or Assignee\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art and Collectors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46448916103238,"sku":null,"price":500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/kobayashi-hiroshi-shenton-park-18328.jpg?v=1787706277","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/kobayashi-hiroshi-shenton-park-18328","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
