Post lot text

Autodidacte, Chiho Aoshima appartient au mouvement japonais Kaikai Kiki fondé par Takashi Murakami en 2001 à Tokyo, inspiré grandement par la culture pop japonaise et ses mangas. En japonais, Kaikai Kiki signifie « puissant et sensible », comme un oxymore décrivant l’essence de l’âme artistique et spirituelle japonaise, voulant réconcilier passé et présent, tradition et modernité, collaboration et introspection personnelle. Cette dualité constante se retrouve dans les œuvres de Chiho Aoshima, qui mêlent touches d’humour et de sérieux, mélancolie et obscurité, naturalité et artifices, vie et mort, nature et technologie. Son travail met en scène régulièrement une sorte d’utopie dystopique, comme un coup de projecteur sur le cycle mystérieux de la vie, à la fois présent et sans cesse fuyant, changeant, évolutif.

‌Self-taught, Chiho Aoshima belongs to the Japanese Kaikai Kiki movement founded by Takashi Murakami in 2001 in Tokyo, greatly inspired by Japanese pop culture and its mangas. In Japanese, Kaikai Kiki means “powerful and sensitive,” like an oxymoron describing the essence of the Japanese artistic and spiritual soul, wanting to reconcile past and present, tradition and modernity, collaboration and personal introspection. This constant duality is reflected in Chiho Aoshima's work, which combines touches of humour and seriousness, melancholy and darkness, naturalness and artifice, life and death, nature and technology. Her work regularly stages a kind of dystopian utopia, like a spotlight on the mysterious cycle of life, which is both present and constantly elusive, changing,evolving.
