About this artwork
People try to make themselves look good. They want to draw attention to satisfy their approval desire. I found that the lipstick shape resembles a bullet shape. Lipsticks are used to attract people just like shooting their hearts. Bullets are used to scare or kill someone in order to fulfill a person's nasty desires. Desire is a keyword for these little objects.

« I am an artist who earnestly learns various knowledge and techniques of textiles, digests them, and takes a unique approach to conventional thinking and methods to create innovative works. »
Aomi Kikuchi is an award-winning Japanese textile artist whose works have been exhibited nationally, as well as in the United States and South Korea. Her art is based on Japanese aesthetics and Buddha’s philosophy, which can be summarized in three central concepts: impermanence, insubstantiality, and suffering. Mesmerized by the beauty of Yuzen dyeing, a traditional Japanese dyeing technique for kimonos, Kikuchi devoted nearly three decades to learning the ten stages of its process, which she incorporates in her art.
