New Toshu Artist: Akshay Tijare

‘I implant parts of real machines into the objects I build and draw to guide the viewer into thinking about the figure as a machine. Once the idea of the machine is established, the relationship between its organic life form and its mechanical origin can be explored. It is my intent to position the figure in a way that allows the viewer to partake in the process of imagination’, Akshay Tijare.

Influenced by cubistic, futuristic and surrealist theories, his work is inspired by motion and energy, mechanical objects and machinery, as well as recent developments in cloning and genetic engineering, restlessly and passionately exploring an ever thinning line between the natural and the artificial.

Whether you are a science fiction enthusiast, you grew up in a world of video games, are curious about the increasing technological manipulation of life, or just have passion for cars and mechanical objects or intricate drawings, you will love Akshays’work.

We are very happy to welcome Akshay to Toshu.
