Aiko was born in Tokyo and is famously known as a founding member of the art collective Faile. In 2006 Aiko left Faile to focus on her solo career and has since exhibited her stencil/silk screen paintings in New York, Los Angeles, London, Berlin, Tokyo and Barcelona. Finding inspiration in the streets, Kawaii culture, and the energy and sexuality of women everywhere Aiko combines stenciling with brushwork and spray paint to recreate the urban decay of her work on the city streets, vixens and virgins with pop-culture sensibilities embody all the sexuality that fuels its spirit. |
