Résumé


The sewing machine represents many things: the Industrial Revolution, the decline of handiwork, and perceptions of gender. Using this multifaceted tool, Aoyama Satoru fashions humorous and satirical works that capture the many issues and contradictions which surround us. The beginning of his practice is rooted in his study of textile art at Goldsmiths, University of London, where he cultivated an awareness of not only art but also the labour and feminist issues underlying textiles. Dedicated to revealing Aoyama’s unique vision, this book brings together a selection of roughly 150 works created over a period of two decades, enriched throughout by the artist’s own commentary. 176 p, ills colour, 19 x 26 cm, pb, Japanese/English
