Takahiro Kimura

Kimura is an animation expert and an illustrator , He was born in Japan in 1965.
Kimura uses collage largely in his works.
In 1999 he started a project in which he planned to construct and draw 1000 human faces depicting various emotions and personalities.

Though I am quite interested in various aspects and contradictions which people have inside, I attempt not to think about them in the stage of creation. I’d rather devote my attention to force of line and exquisite balance of form, mass, composition and color so that sense of existence of my works, which are inclusive of said factors, can stand out.

If I hold up the emotion of human being, which is so complicated and elusive, as theme of my work, the work will be unable to catch up with the emotion and the work will be undistinguished. Therefore, in a state of selfless, I command not feeling but solely my aesthetic sense and attempt to create my work.'
