onomatopoeia art by atsushi fukunaga





atsushi fukunaga makes art that gives form to the formless, using a unique interpretation of onomatopoeia. fukunaga turns sounds, not only into words, but then transforms these words into forms. he also uses the japanese katakana alphabet to translate words from other languages, creating what he feels is a more universal mode of communication. the sculptures he creates illustrates these sounds using a variety of materials which include pencils, pens and paper. the sculptures are placed strategically explain the location they emanate from.
