Paramodel

Decoration, painting, animation, sculpture

Basic profile

Paramodel is an “art unit” created in 2001 by Yasuhiko Hayashi (graduated from Kyoto City University of the Arts in 2001) and Yusuke Nakano (graduated from the same university and studied Japanese painting). The name is a combination of two words, “Paradise” and “model”, and the fusion of these two concepts is essentially the starting point of their creation. Although the two artists’ respective talents and interests rarely converge, they worked together to create an intricate and intricate model of paradise with a variety of toy parts, such as plastic rails and miniature toy cars, in the same imagination. In this art unit, the two artists use a range of media, including decoration, objects, animation, painting, sculpture and photography, to present a poetic and contradictory reconstructed paradise.
