Moemi Takano


Artist Bio

Fascinated by the similarities between my favourite pixelated images from childhood computer graphics and the patterns created by the warp and weft of fabric, I explore intersections of art history and textile culture. In recent years, I have intricately combined handcrafts such as spinning, dyeing, weaving, and embroidery, while experimenting with language in the titles of my work. My body of work expresses the fragility and strength of human endeavours, as well as the joy, absurdity, and void of contemporary life, reflecting the complex nature of existence.


Selected Work

Name: Inhale, Planetarily


This minimal sculpture invites careful observation of the transformation from point to line, and from line to the surface of a three-dimensional form. The yarn, hand-spun by the artist from industrial cotton pads, is precisely wound around a wooden frame, abstracting and reintroducing its layered histories into time and space.
