日本艺术家兼设计师Mariko Kusumoto通过聚酯、尼龙和棉布,制作了类似她认为最迷人的生物和日常物品的雕塑形式。她使用一种专有的热定形技术,将无处不在的材料塑造成波浪形的波纹、蜂窝垫,甚至是微小的鱼群,呈现在优雅而梦幻的环境中。
无论是色彩柔和的珊瑚礁,还是一个充满蘑菇、玫瑰花结和微型自行车的奇妙手镯,kusumoto的作品,包括独立的物品和可穿戴设备,使用半透明纤维的超凡品质,使即使是最普通的形式,看起来都像是梦境的一部分。在这位艺术家的网站和Ins上,你可以找到她作品的更大档案,从纺织品到金属和树脂都有。

She uses a proprietary heat-setting technique to mold the ubiquitous materials into undulating ripples, honeycomb poufs, and even tiny schools of fish that are presented in elegant and fanciful contexts. Whether a pastel coral reef or a fantastical bracelet filled with mushrooms, rosettes, and minuscule bicycles, Kusumoto’s body of work, which includes standalone objects and wearables, uses the ethereal qualities of the translucent fibers to make even the banalest forms appear like they’re part of a dream.You can find a larger archive of the artist’s pieces, which ranges from textiles to metal and resin, on her site and Instagram.#coral#fabric#fashion#nature#sculptureDo stories and artists like this matter to you?
