By engaging with motifs whose raison d'être is replication, Yamamoto inquires into the nature of uniqueness and originality. The artistʼs expression, a breathtakingly photorealistic technique in which a distinctive concept is hidden, captivates viewers. What does Yamamoto paint and what is he trying to reveal? When Yamamoto replicates old postcards and photographic portraits, he absorbs the minutest details, including how the original has changed color over time, how it might be bent or peeled, reproducing them faithfully.
