Residency in Miami

I am very very very happy that I am going to be an artist at the Fountainhead residency in Miami, Florida this coming summer.  I want to take this opportunity at the residency to work as much as possible to create new works!

Vegan cupcakes & cookies

I made vegan vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting and sugar cookies for a birthday party last weekend. These are 100% vegan - no dairy, no eggs, no honey, no animal products of any kind. I used beet juice as a natural food coloring for my pink icing. They were pretty yum :)

Kimono in progress - Part 1

I am making kimonos for the film, She Looks Delicious. Two supporting actresses (Japanese girls) are going to wear these very colorful, short length kimonos in high heels. Materials are vintage kimonos I found in flea markets in Tokyo.

She Looks Delicious - Film Shoot Day 2

We had our second shoot for the film, She Looks Delicious at Vinegar Hill Historic District near DUMBO in Brooklyn yesterday. The street is paved with beautiful cobblestones. This is from a scene where the main character, a 20-year-old NYU student, is entering an unknown world in the middle of night. And Yes, I sew the red velvet curtains.

About me

Ai Kijima
I am a Japanese born artist currently living in Istanbul, Turkey and New York City. My distinctive works are chaotic collages: amalgamations of found material painstakingly stitched into evocative cross-cultural patchworks.
