Mariko Mori!!!!!

Mariko Mori!!!!! (an inspiration to what I will be doing for my last project)

Another artist who has inspired me with my theme of Alien and culture is  Mariko Mori. She is a Japanese artist who juxtapose her work with culture and Eastern mythology with Western culture is a common theme in her work.... This is the reason why she has inspired me as for this final project I want to sculpt an Aliens and have all different culture which are from me and the ones which find interesting(& fascinating).... Mariko Mori, the Japanese-born, New York-based multimedia artist has a knack for combining unlikely objects — , Boddhisatvas with 3-D projection — to create futuristic art with a heavy Zen influence and Aliens making them fascinating... Mori’s continued interest in a fusion of art and technology, Buddhism, and the idea of universal spiritual consciousness. Drawing from ancient rituals and symbols, Mori uses cutting edge technology and material to create a strikingly beautiful vision for the 21st century.
Mori's 2003 installation at Deitch Projects was Oneness, a project held in conjunction with the Public Art Fund’s installation of her Wave UFO project. It is a symbol of the acceptance of otherness and a model for overcoming national and cultural borders. It also is a representation of the Buddhist concept of oneness, of the world existing.  (Her work in the theme of Aliens.. she has mixed up unique technique of sculpting her Aliens.... as well as making them attractive in the sense of they "stand-out".....)
Her "ALIEN" art work!!!!!!
