Satoshi Ohno
Satoshi Ohno was born in Gifu prefecture in 1980. His visit to the U.S army base in Yokota on the very first day of the Iraqi war inspired him to create his first series "Yokota US Air Base".
While searching for a place where he could feel that the war had actually begun somewhere close to where he lived, he found a cedar planted in the base, surrounded by walls. The tree, in this artificially isolated space, deeply inspired him.
After this experience, his works started to contain elements of clostrophobic feelings, fusion of nature and artifact, and a reconsideration of the sense of space.
