About
IKUKO Iwamoto is a East London-based Japanese artist who uses porcelain to create eccentric table-top pieces and sculptures. Her inspiration comes from intricate and fragile looking structures found in microscopic world.
Her typical work involves spikes and piled-up dots which obsessively attached to create tension, fragility and flows.
She is currently concentrating on her “Antique project”, especially a series of works called “Ghosts from the sea”. These fish are the ghosts whose home were destroyed by bottom trawling or the ones that were captured and left to be dead because they were not the type for the market.
