Andew Sakamoto is a Mexican-Japanese American visual artist from California, producing work out of Bolm Arts in Austin, Texas.
His approach to painting is deliberate and process-oriented, in contrast to the chaotic free-form expression of his illustrations. By utilizing both mediums, he unveils the interplay between the conscious and subconscious when processing everyday life, between cultures.
Andew selects objects to become characters in his work, reclaiming the power of set and setting. With an endless curation of flowers in and out of the studio, his recent floral works explore motion and a continual shift from one unique moment to the next, through life and in death.
