Hiroshi Sato is interested in depicting our mind as a self contained world interfacing with the external world. The goal is to frame the moments of our life where this idea reveals itself to the perceiver.
Hiroshi Sato was born in Gamagori, Japan. From the age of three to fourteen Hiroshi Sato lived in Tanzania, East Africa. During this period his world could be separated into three places. The first was the inside of the house; filled with stories of his parents, books, and movies. The second, was the outside world of an alternate culture and landscape. The third was the place his culture was supposed to be, Japan. The third was a place that existed as a pseudo fictional place in his head, only confirmed to be real by brief visits to Japan once a year.
