Hideyuki Sobue commented on D. Lee Ted's group 'Language'
Along the line of evolution, I don't know exactly when human gained the language which is totally unique to the humanity among all creatures on a planet, however, I'm always intrigued by the fact that human have gained drawing and painting…

I am...
a Japanese artist residing in Cumbria, UK.
About my artwork
I believe that drawing is the first cause of all creative activities and communication tools apart from verbal words for humanity. In the prehistoric age before inventing painting, which preceded the invention of letters, drawing was there. Drawing is a unique fundamental tool for humans to express ideas even before they emerge from subliminal sphere with a definite linguistic form. It is the source of paintings, symbols, signs and letters. With this point of view, I have attempted to seek a new expression bridging drawing, painting and letters.

I have created and developed a brush hatching technique using acrylic and Japanese sumi ink. This was initially inspired by the classic method of "disegno", based on drawing, established in Florentine school in Renaissance. Technically I have enhanced the concept by combining it with the latest neurological studies, which reveal that the human visual brain perceives objects by oriented lines predominantly. This evidence might show the difference between painting and letters, long hidden in the prehistoric age. In my practice, I attempt to gather the threads of "narrative" in creating textures of the ever-changing present moment, embodying semiotic images of our time.

Consequently I aim to raise questions regarding the dignity and quality of life in understanding religious, racial, ethical and cultural dilemmas across other scientific fields; what the potential might be of drawing and painting among numerous artistic expressions; and how to bridge East and West as well as great heritage and contemporary understanding.
Artists I like
Albrecht Dürer, Caravaggio, Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn, Johannes Vermeer, William Blake, Édouard Manet, Andy Warhol, Andrew Wyeth, Chuck Close, Thohaku Hasegawa, Tadashi Kawamata, Christian Boltanski, David Nash, Ansel Adams, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Yousuf Karsh, Robert Mapplethorpe, Diane Arbus, Sebastiao Salgado, Bruce Weber, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Andrei Tarkovsky
Interests
history, art history+theory, iconology, aesthetics, philosophy, theology, anthropology, sociology, linguistics, semiotics, psychology, neuroscience, photography, film, etc...
Centre of the artworld:
London, my studio, online, nowhere and everywhere, another city

Greetings Hideyuki!
Thank you so much for the kind comments. I wandered through your work and was drawn (no pun intended) through the wonderful lens of your creations. Whatever your intent may be, they convey to me a profound sense of peace and joy in both the human and natural experience. Full of wonder!

Dear Hideyuki: You sent me a comment back in October. I apologize for the tardy reply. Prompt responses to Art Review and other like sites are difficult. However, I am currently on sabbatical for several months and now have time to devote to reviewing artist pages on Art Review. This evening, I visted your page on A.R. and later your own personal site which I have found to be one of the best designed artist sites that I have ever seen. What a pleasure that was! Regarding you work, you handle your subjects with such sensitivity, and attentiveness to composition. I am quite intrigued. I will certainly go back to you site again for a second look.

Sincerely, KATE HENDRICKSON
