Inside Arts is proud to present:

Hidetoshi Yamada

Couples

Hidetoshi Yamada was born in Tokyo in 1970, but he has lived in London since 1999, and has exhibited widely in both cities. Most recently, Hide has worked with Rankin on a soon-to-be-released short film entitled Ants, in which Hide's drawings will star as the works of a female artist. As Hide admits, his use of technology extends to a "mobile and broken hi-fi", but his skill with paper, pencil and brush is breathtaking.

In their April 2003 issue, Dazed & Confused cited Hide as one to watch. Since 1999 he has been working on projects concerned with the human subject, expressing the combination of shape and movement with various patterns and abstract designs.

For his brand new work for fEAST, Hide has drawn on his upbringing in Japan and memories of family lunches beneath the blossoming cherry tree, nervousness escorting a girlfriend to a trendy Tokyo restaurant and his country's wide range of fruits. Visit the show for the first chance to see them.
