By comparing social structure of human society versus non-hierarchical structure of the insect society, aricoco investigates personal and communal concepts of home as a temporary shelter. In order to create her own temporary shelter, aricoco makes and uses robes as a protective layer, drawing references from the invertebrates with exoskeleton. To do so, she embraces her fear of insects and challenges her own vulnerability. Through this process of making robes and art, aricoco questions the human domination of Earth’s ecosystem. As a whole, aricoco’s performative garments reveal her struggle and desperate hope to get through today, and possibly, tomorrow.About the Artistaricoco (Ari Tabei) is an interdisciplinary visual artist based in NYC who was born and raised in Tokyo. aricoco’s last solo exhibition at La MaMa Galleriapresented her performance project supported by Franklin Furnace Fund in 2018.
