Aruta Soup的艺术语言诉说着英国街头艺术的核心,其来自于他在伦敦坎伯韦尔艺术学院(Camberwell College of Arts)学习的时光。赴英留学期间,他深受东伦敦的涂鸦和酒吧文化的吸引,作品中充满了西方流行文化的元素,包括卡通形象、漫画美学和随处可见的城市涂鸦。Aruta Soup将城市化作为画布,把发人深省的信息带到东京、巴黎、伦敦、柏林等城市的公共空间,使他的艺术直面到更广泛的人群。


ARUTA SOUP:废墟
香港 H Queen’s 8楼
2024.03.25 - 05.11
此次展览展示了Aruta Soup引人入胜的艺术世界,即社会评论与自我反思的融合,他的作品从根本上关注现代社会的矛盾和反映人们的心理困境。艺术家的图像语言以“ZERO”代替,它是一只缠着绷带的兔子,看似受伤,实则重生——代表了艺术家内心世界的挣扎和乐观。






《废墟》呈现Aruta Soup对于充满了可能性及复杂性的21世纪的探索,同时,在内心警惕着随着时间推移,其作品终将不可避免地衰变的事实。艺术家回想起某天偶然发现的一幅壁画,该壁画由未知的街头艺术家所绘制,年代已不可考。直至遮盖着它的废弃建筑物被拆除,喷绘的图案在破裂的砖瓦中重现,为他带来了深刻的情绪波动。Aruta Soup形容自己在发现这幅神秘作品时感受到的是一种“浪漫的感觉”,使他沉浸在废墟中发现的微妙之美。在思考自己作品的潜在命运的同时,艺术家坚信艺术不会过时,它超越了物质衰败的限制,即使在腐蚀的状态下,艺术仍然能够持续的引发惊奇并传递信息。Aruta Soup的愿景是创作永远鲜活的作品,不受短暂潮流的束缚,免于时间的无情冲击。






ABOUT

ARUTA SOUP
ARUTA SOUP
Aruta Soup is a street artist whose work combines anime culture and British-specific humor. At the age of 17, he studied at Camberwell College of Arts in London and became immersed in graffiti and club culture in East London. Because of that, his work began to address timely issues, society, and people's psychological states. The artist's visual lexicon features a bandaged Rabbit character named ZERO, who frequently appears as wounded but reviving, which represents both the inner struggles and optimistic spirit of the artist within a chaotic world.
After returning to Japan in 2012, Aruta Soup held solo exhibitions in Shibuya Seibu, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, and participated in numerous art fairs. His burgeoning talent gained recognition in the contemporary art world with his collaboration with Medicom Toy and CASETiFY.
