by Keisuke Mori

Published in conjunction with the exhibition Leiko Ikemura: PIOON at the Vangi Sculpture Garden Museum in Shizuoka, this formidable catalog covers all aspects of the Japanese-Swiss artists body of work, but especially concerns her sculptures produced since 1980. Having left Japan in 1972 and based herself in Europe, it is only recently that her artworks have become more widely known in her homeland. Focusing on the transfiguration brought about by fluctuation, sometimes through blurring the boundaries between human, animal and nature, the organic forms she produces unite conflicting elements such as life and death, instinct and reason, and east and west.
