- For her first exhibition In Chicago, Chika Ito has produced
1000 postcard sized papers, with silver inked circles. 1000 thoughts, 1000 nights;
psychological mapping of her first winter in 's-Hertogenbosch, Holland.
Ito explains
that "All
hand drawn circles together would become structure;they are derived
from my everyday emotions. Based
on the very personal motivation, they explore the visual presentation
of spontaneous repetition. This case, my own feeling as a source
of creativity, put together, they transcend physical performances
to visual coherence.
Born in Niigata, Japan, Ito lives and works in
's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands. Ito studied at Southern Illinois
University, Carbondale 1996 -2000.
