Haru K: Delicious Landscapes

Haru. K’s work offers a spatial experience that unites Eastern and Western visual systems. By merging the geometric precision of Western perspective with the contemplative aesthetics of Eastern tradition, his landscapes transcend mere visual representation, expanding into conceptual spaces where time, culture, and materiality intersect. While nature in Eastern art often symbolizes spiritual depth, Haru. K integrates this with Western material perspectives, dissolving the boundaries between nature and everyday life, and fostering an artistic dialogue between tradition and modernity.

 

In Haru. K’s work, food symbolizes the material world. By enlarging food and compressing natural landscapes, he highlights how the material and spiritual worlds interact in modern life. This approach invites viewers to consider the coexistence of the physical and the spiritual in new ways, creating a deeper reflection on how different cultures experience these realms.

 

Haru. K’s art reinterprets the balance between East and West, past and present, and materiality and spirituality. His work shows how nature, as a mediator of both worlds, fosters cultural dialogue and demonstrates the possibility of harmonious coexistence between diverse traditions.
