Akiko Shirai is a legendary Japanese artist known for her renowned works that explore the connection between the material and spiritual world. Her artworks often fuse traditional Japanese concepts with a post-modern, international aesthetic. She produces paintings, sculptures, installations, and performance pieces that center around the idea of metamorphosis and the passage of time. She has had major solo exhibitions at the Neuberger Museum of Art in New York, the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art, and the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo. Some of her notable works include 'Cosmic Flower', a monumental sculpture installation made from 3,000 hand-cut porcelain flowers, and 'Fluxus Fragment', a video installation that tells the story of the 20th century from the perspective of a migrant spirit.
