8. Artist Profile: Takayuki Matsumine

Born in Iwate Prefecture in 1985.

At the age of 16, Songfeng seriously injured his cervical vertebra during the skiing he was engaged in at the time, resulting in paralysis from the shoulders down, and was forced to face the thoughts of life every day. In the process of finding a new self in frustration, he said, “the society sometimes blows me hard, and sometimes it saves me very warmly.” These two strong winds have cultivated his strong sensibility. Since beginning his career as an artist, Matsumine has been creating three-dimensional and media artworks on themes of space, people and nature. His work is “co-created” through the collaboration of art assistants who share Songfeng’s approach to connecting self-expression, tragedy and pain with “beauty”. All beings suffer, big or small. The artist tries to share with the audience that it is by confronting these events that we learn to appreciate them and perceive their beauty.
