#Japanese #artist Riusuke fukahori intricately paints swimming goldfish with resin, all images courtesy of joshua liner gallery. The artist’s innate fascination and infatuation with the swimming creatures aroused in him a creative preoccupation, studying, watching, and understanding their movements in pursuit of recreating them as highly-realistic, near sculptural depictions. keeping dozens of the freshwater fish in tanks, bowls, and buckets around his studio, fukahori sits and watches them, committing their silhouette and vibrant chroma to memory, as he does not use photographic source material when he paints.
