About

Aoshima, Chiho
Chiho Aoshima is a Japanese pop artist and member of Takashi Murakami's Kaikai Kiki Collective. Aoshima graduated from the Department of Economics, Hosei University, Tokyo. She had a residency at Art Pace, San Antonio, Texas in 2006. This young graphic artist began in Murakami’s factory with no formal art training. Aoshima’s work often involves surreal scenes and dreamscapes, often including ghosts, demons, nature and young women. Aoshima mostly prints large scale images onto papers with heavy-duty printers, but she has also printed on materials such as leather and plastic surfaces to give her images different textures. She has also created scuptural pieces and animation. Aoshima's work is displayed on the walls of the New York City Transit system as part of her City Glow Series. She has also displayed her work in an exhibition in the Gloucester Road tube station in London and the 14th Street–Union Square subway station. Aoshima states that, "My work feels like strands of my thoughts that have flown around the universe before coming back to materialise." Aoshima lives and works in Tokyo.
