About
Why this artist matters now
Aki Inomata creates sculptures and installations from translucent and crystalline materials, often incorporating living organisms to examine perception and biological systems. Her work moves across scales from intimate objects to large installations, using glass and resin to construct immersive environments that collapse distinctions between scientific observation and aesthetic intervention. The optical properties of her materials reshape spatial and temporal experience, positioning the viewer within rather than before the work.
