"Vert Table No. 1" by Hiroshi Sato, Original Painting, Abstract Still Life
Located in Denver, CO
Hiroshi Sato's "Vert Table No. 1," created in 2023, is a captivating acrylic on canvas painting measuring 38 x 32 inches (96.52 x 81.28 cm). This original artwork features an abstract still life scene rendered in Sato's distinctive geometric style. The composition draws the viewer's eye to the central objects, meticulously crafted with angular precision and a palette of muted yet vibrant colors. The interplay of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimension, highlighting Sato's masterful technique. The artwork is unframed but ready to hang, offering flexibility in presentation. "Vert Table No. 1" exemplifies Sato's exploration of spatial relationships and abstract forms, making it a perfect addition to any contemporary art collection. The painting's clean lines and bold shapes reflect Sato's keen interest in modern architecture and design. Priced competitively for an original piece by a renowned artist, this painting is an excellent investment for art enthusiasts and collectors alike. Artist Bio & Statement: Hiroshi Sato was born September 1987 in Japan. From the age of three to fourteen he spent his childhood in Tanzania. While there, he recognized where he lived was not home, and where he called home was some place he hardly ever knew. From a very young age, he understood he was not a participant of his surroundings. Therefore, his role was of an observer. This recognition and his exposure to alternate cultures, class, wealth, language is his backdrop to his interest in perception and how it is explored in the singular image. He enrolled in the fine-arts program at the Academy of Art University, San Francisco, graduating with a Bachelors and Masters in Fine Art. Hiroshi Sato is focused on contemporary realist oil painting. He is best known for paintings of figures in an interior environment. He draws influence from past and present artists including Vermeer, Degas, Andrew Wyeth, Euan Uglow, Hopper and Chuck Close. Sato’s work shows his interest in geometric design principles of the old masters and is currently exploring the simultaneous illusion of form and flatness in space. His goal is to portray, and better understand our various states of consciousness within ourselves through the visual medium. Hiroshi Sato’s work has been featured in various publications such as Fine Art Connoisseur, Juxtapoz Magazine...
