AROUND THE AOSHIMA’S UNIVERSE – My work feels like strands of my thoughts that have flown around the universe before coming back to materialise

When your geographical horizon extends – for business or pleasure – you have the wonderful opportunity to hear you inside, like the perfectly proportioned man (created by Leonardo da Vinci), correlating the symmetry of human anatomy to the symmetry of the universe. What you see, hear, eat and feel, it’s all inside the Vitruvian approach to life. We have the joy to talk to you about Chiho Aoshima  > CHIHO AOSHIMA 1/4 – Chiho Aoshima – born 1974 in Tokyo – is a Japanese pop artist, who uses graphics softwares and modern printers to create complex images of surreal worlds with humans, animals and hybridized creatures. Aoshima’s works are part of the Superflat movement that was founded in Japan by Takashi Murakami.       CHIHO AOSHIMA 2/4 – She uses a giant printer, to create large scale digital works featuring a unique world of big eyed girls, hybridized nature, and candy colored environments. Superflat describes the simplified and explicit two dimensional artistic style of the Japanese Manga culture. CHIHO AOSHIMA 3/4 – Aoshima’s identifiable style, combines state of the art computer animated illustration, Japanese manga and anime. Furthermore, this concept characterises the younger generation of artists in Japan, whose projects deliberately violate the traditional borders between “high” and popular art. She combines elements of computer-animated illustartions and Manga with influences of traditional Japanese woodcut.                                              CHIHO AOSHIMA 4/4 – She collaborated with Issey Miyake, with her artwork featured in the collection. This slick mastery of technology camouflages and seemingly G-rates, tantalizing subject matter: nude nymphets and seductive couplings. Along with her astonishing, highly fabricated palette, it is a successful means by which to trick the viewer into looking.
