Conceptual art and the study of form coexist in the works of Kelly Akashi, an American artist of Japanese origins, born and raised in Los Angeles. In her poetic, fragile and precious compositions, made with materials such as glass, wax and bronze, familiar and alienating forms recur that explore existential questions, encouraging us to look at things from a different, broader and less anthropocentric perspective. Universal concepts such as time and space, the transience of the human body and entropy are the subject of reflection. In exhibitions, forms that recall plants, flowers, shells or parts of the body become a litmus test that reflects the passage of time.
