After thirty years of development, Japanese sculpture art has an important position in China and even in the world. However, due to the influence of society, economy, and culture at that time, people have a certain degree of insufficient understanding of art forms. This paper takes Japanese contemporary sculpture as an example to study its cartoon image. From the point of view of modeling design, this paper analyzes and summarizes the representative significance and value concept, which provides reference and reference for modern creation. From the perspective of spatial layout, this paper expounds the morphological characteristics and expression techniques used in contemporary Japanese modern sculpture, and finally puts forward some suggestions and development directions for contemporary sculpture in China.
