Jun'ichiro Ishii was born in 1975 in Fukuoka, Japan. Ishii began his art studies in interior design and fine art, the basics of paintings. Over time, as he gained personal social-cultural experiences, his focus has slowly shifted from paintings to more complex creative activities. After undertaking several projects in Japan, he moved to South Korea in order to discover a different culture and to increase his cultural awareness. After two years of artistic experience in Seoul, he is now living in Paris, France. Based on a site-specific point of view, Ishii is extremely interested in observing the bare cultural aspects. To precisely pursue his pure impression of the site, he does not have a predetermined method, but adds a symbolic form to the cultural peculiarities he experiences and represents them as a site-specific art piece. To cover the temporality of the site-specific works, Ishii employs the art of video. Not only for archival purposes, but also as independent works of art providing different perspectives and angles of the physical work itself.
