Jacob Hashimoto is an American artist with Japanese origin. In the style of his works emerges the mingling of these two cultures conjugated in an extremely creative way. The artist is a discovery of Italian gallery Studio City, but the international spotlight will remain lighted until the 8th of June 2014 on his solo exhibition organized by MOCA in Los Angeles in the headquarters of West Hollywood.



The distinctive kites of the artist will be show for the third and last time in the monumental installation Gas giant. Hashimoto has recently produced a series of works on rice paper and bamboo made by hand and hung on cotton threads that show a study of the landscape so deep as to become abstract.



The round and delicate shapes represented in his works are dominated first by a feeling of lightness, followed then by a sense of involvement and lifting. The use of light, craft and the study of spaces are mixed in the work of Hashimoto to give life to the inimitable visual experience.





The works of Jacob Hashimoto are treated all over the world by prominent galleries such as Mary Boon of New York, the Rhona Hoffman of Chicago. The structure of gas giant was, moreover, also presented at the Biennale of Venice at the Querini Stampalia Foundation.
