NADA Curated: Reduction to Satire (Reductio ad Satura)

Hirosuke Yabe’s carved wooden sculptures were created from his desire to shift from the modern ideal to a philosophical investigation into what we are as humans and who we are in the basest version of ourselves. This exploration of the anima results in depictions of animals, people, anthropomorphic creatures, even monsters, but all are metaphors for the human condition.
