‘Los espantos’, de Leiko Ikemura

Born in Japan, Leiko Ikemura lived in Spain and Switzerland until he settled permanently in Germany. He possesses an extensive work that includes painting, sculpture and drawing. He found his unique style in the nineties and since then has not left it.

He represents figures wrapped in their thoughts, ghostly beings and supernatural landscapes. Faces and rocks that merge into hybrid images of nature.

His work is often explained as the result of the encounter between cultures, the loss of cultural identity and a reflection on the elimination of borders.
