For this project, Takahashi made 15 cm figures out of plaster and clay and photographed them in the street according to their lines of sight, creating another point of view out of our daily environments. Takahashi previously won acclaim for her animal series, and this new series features skulls as a motif. Taking the theme "human beings are siblings in life, a pile of bones in death" as her starting point, the artist created over 100 skull figures and shot them in a variety of settings. In addition to the exhibited works, figures and other goods will be on sale.

We've got pictures from the new Kaori Takahashi show in Harajuku. Her art involves creating figures (usually animals or people) out of plaster, clay, and paint, then photographing them on the street or in various Tokyo environments in an attempt to force people to look at their world in a different way...
