Hirofumi Fujiwara's artistic practice operates at the intersection of reality and dream, of tangible form and enraptured imagination. Entitled oneirataxia, his latest series of works addresses a state of disorder between imagination and reality - an inability to clearly distinguish between the two spheres. This state is reflected in Fujiwara's sculptures, which oscillate between the worlds and playfully dissolve the boundaries of the tangible.
The figures appear youthful and ageless, androgynous and timeless. They radiate a contemplative calm, while their gaze is directed towards the indefinite. This ambivalence, the hovering between the poles, is also reflected in his working method. The artist describes his creative process as a concatenation of chance moments in which no clear idea determines the direction. Instead, Fujiwara is guided by intuition and memories of the diversity of people he encounters in everyday life.
Fujiwara's works embody both longing and ideal - the longing for a utopia that always eludes us, and the impossibility of clearly separating vision and reality. oneirataxia becomes an invitation to question the boundaries of the visible and to immerse oneself in the limbo between worlds.
