Sculptor Noe Aoki sees iron as an element that is omnipresent in the body, on Earth, and in the universe. Her mode of artistic expression, at once literal yet metaphysical, embraces the notion that iron contains a kind of translucent light within. Created with a resilient and fluid approach, her works function as free and open devices for enhancing our senses. The iron seems soft and supple, the skeletal structure evokes a sense of fullness despite its lack of mass, and the biomorphic forms made of circles and lines elicit familiarity, creating a space where different elements coexist. This book shows how Aoki grasps the essential nature that lies hidden within material substances.
