About this artwork
I realized that humans and animals all have the same ivory bones if you remove the skin and flesh, and the skeleton changed for me from an image of death and fear to a symbol of equality for all living things. In 2018, I made my first skull using the papier mache with silk gauze. When I put long hair on the skull, it immediately looked like a woman. It made me realize that I myself am living with the stereotypes I have cultivated for many years.…
This time, I braided the skull's long hair into dreadlocks, and I put a Japanese 5 yen coin in the decoration. In addition to looking like a woman, I also layered stereotypes of race and nationality.
Stereotypes prevent us from seeing things fairly in society.
I think viewers will interpret this work in various ways. I hope that they will realize that all of these interpretations are prejudices that the viewer has unconsciously cultivated.

« 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.
