Jun Inoue at ASSIN

Friday, June 3rd, 2011

Floating World Art’s produced an installation by Jun Inoue at ASSIN.

Rated by JCreport as one of the top 5 retail spaces in the world, ASSIN is in league of it’s own in Australia fashion.

Artist Jun Inoue, a emerging Tokyo based artists, blended the the tradition and subtle dialogue between movement and negative space that typifies the Ikke aesthetic with contemporary elements of graffiti such as outlines and an implied depth to created the large triptych installation.

The merger of traditional and contemporary Japanese aesthetic serves as visual allegory for ASSIN itself who work with designs such as Undercover and Junya. The dominating piece thus could be viewed as an abstract and expressive interpretation of any of the racks which line the store.

The collaborative process was documented as part of an upcoming documentary series.
