About the artist:
K is a Japanese artist who increasingly pursues the beauty of the human body and machinery. As a former car designer, K began to delve into the field of prototype design to help more people understand the essence of aesthetics. Once his works were released, they gained widespread attention and acclaim. K hopes to demonstrate his understanding of the continuity of life to the public through the fusion of humanoid ecology and machinery.

About the work:
K has been interested in human body art for a long time. Influenced by artists such as Auguste Rodin and Francis Bacon, he has always been fascinated by the themes of "mechanics" and "young girls". When he wanted to create freely and express vitality and creativity, it was natural for him to integrate these two elements. Apart from exploring the aesthetics of the human body itself, K's artistic creation also reflects his interpretation of hot topics such as artificial intelligence, cyborgs, and eternal coexistence, while also arousing our attention to futurism. K has expressed a great interest in the question of "why are we alive?" and hopes to explore this theme through the relationship between machinery and flesh. In terms of painting, he hopes to present the texture of half-human, half-mechanical through colors. He has done a lot of color refinement from the skin to the machinery, covering many layers to ensure clean and smooth colors, thus requiring focused and patient layer-by-layer progression. The final presentation showcases K's unique interpretation of cyberpunk creation.
