Ai
Hashimoto

Ai Hashimoto (Japan) is a visual artist, who lives and works in The Hague, Netherlands. Her art works are based on her narratives and rituals. She creates a link between abstract spiritual realities and the real forms of the material world just like Surrealists through her art works. Additionally her academic background of Anthropology and Biology prior to Fine Arts has deep impact and influence on her works.The main theme of Ai’s art works for several years is about her narrative called "Pink Tsunami" and its subsequent world - “Kinoko". "Kinoko" is a creature with a mushroom head and it brings new life and new landscape in the post apocalyptic world after the “Pink Tsunami” disaster. She creates, piece by piece, her own post-tsunami-world with different media. Her works show a potential reconstruction after the worst catastrophe imaginable.
