In his work, Naoki Fuku analyses the sense of Hope, by connecting the possibilities of our imagination. The notion of hope is often used in connection to natural disasters, economics or areas of conflict. It is usually used in a social context, where we no longer know what will happen or what to do. When hope seems to be all that is left. “I am working on this series because I could not care about others for quite some time. Arriving in Europe I had no other choice than to take every possible job to eat and survive myself” says Naoki. “By arranging the objects carefully to visualise the social contexts and global issues as simple as possible, I would like people to think of others who are less fortunate than they are. There are places in the world where water does not run from the tap, where there is no electricity " 

Naoki Fuku is a Japanese artist, born in Tokyo. Working across mediums, he studies social, political, cultural and human cobditions in both systematic as well as poetic ways, inviting the viewers to move into a space of speculation. The works of Naoki Fuku appeal to the viewers’ most intimate self in the middle of today’s exhausting life.
