"Moment-spawn" is a sculpture of the moment when a female salmon swam upstream and spawn. When spawning, salmon open their mouths as if their jaws are coming off. It is the moment when they exert their last vitality, and when spawning is finished, the salmon dies. I wanted to express the dynamism of living in my work.
About Moment Spawn. Taking human ego as my theme, I have been creating works using motifs of fish that have been selectively bred… by humans, such as goldfish and carp.Salmon are now farmed, but salmon born and raised in the wild go down the river where they were born, live in the sea for 3 to 5 years, and then return to the river where they were born.

« 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.
