It is world in which the straightforward will seem complex and order turns to chaos. But do not be afraid to spoil, as at the end you will always find that the common denominator stands (right there at the bottom where it belongs).
Maiko Takeda grew up in Tokyo in a green and quiet area, a rarity for such an eclectic city. As life goes, it would be precisely these small oddities of the big picture that would lead her work.
It’s not just about the contrast it is about regarding each shape, each material, each stone to the detail and evince all its multiplicity. With her the devil truly lies in the details.After having moved to London she still seems to be as untouchable to modern pop culture as ever but then again is not timelessness always the vital component, to an everlasting piece of art.
Each piece simply consists of minimal and geometric elements, such as a variety of sizes of circular holes, pristine outlines and forms, when the light shines through the piesce, the shadow unpredictably appears as a photograph-like image of an organic form.
