This event has ended.

The overall concept of her show, at Galley Onetwentyeight, is “Black” as she says black means not being able to be altered by any other color: that is, black as an identity not as a hue. As she interprets it, Black exists in the darkness—where no light can get in. It cannot be recognized—but Black exists there. Her thinking is “physical and spiritual overlaid” with the results being: Black = Matter = Identity. As an example, Aika cites if the sun sent a lot of light to the universe without any dust (matter); the sunlight would be permanently absorbed into the darkness. Of course, this is a scary and imaginative concept and not a reality. The universe, however, is fully lit from the sun and myriad of stars also provide light—some reflect and shine, but all in a different manner. Aika states this is the basis of her "Black" abstracts. Although Aika has progressed to express herself in illustrative 3-D color, Black will always continue to be her artistic base. “All that I create departed from my insight, which is void of any apparent social or political messages; however many will observe the inspirational communication I wish to convey through my work.” Aika’s show at Gallery Onetwentyeight will feature two- and three-dimensional artwork. In addition, there will be an installation piece inspiring viewer participation that she hopes will “bind people together—deeper and freer.”
