The images of plants and animals gave me the initial inspiration for painting, but once I picked up the brush, I no longer looked back at these images, just simply painted, and realized that I was gradually deconstructing the image elements.
"Painting also creates shapes."
The combination of lines and planes no longer forms bodies but is presented as a single shape.
From the original image to the final formation process, a distorted shape that even I find wonderful was born. A lovely shape.

植物和動物的圖像給了我繪畫的最初靈感，但當我拿起畫筆後，便不再回頭看這些圖像，只是簡單地畫畫，並意識到自己正在逐步地剝解圖像元素。
「繪畫同時創造形狀。」
線條和平面的組合不再成為形體，而是以單一的形狀呈現。
從原始圖像到最後成形的過程，產生了連我自己都感到奇妙的扭曲形狀。可愛的形狀。

About the Solo & Satellite exhibition
Hashimoto Naoko is having her first overseas exhibition in four years, during which she experienced the pandemic and became a mother. Naoko's creation extends from her skillful use of fabric to drawing on paper.
During the interview she mentioned: "After having a child, I deeply realized that time is limited. The time spent on creating allows me to face myself. This is a precious thing, and I also realize that creating is not only a release but also an act of preserving my true self."
As an artist and textile designer, Naoko's natural and authentic creative style can gently integrate into daily life. This time in Taiwan, she chose to hold a Solo exhibition featuring paintings at the design gallery: PONDING, and to display home decoration works in the craft lifestyle space CHUZI Dialogue in the form of a satellite exhibition.
In CHUZI Dialogue, you can not only see paintings but also the latest fabric flower design "Brave" for 2024 and various textile home decorations. These works echo the concept of CHUZI Dialogue: to create through craftsmanship and natural elements, allowing art to naturally integrate into life.
關於 Solo & Satellite exhibition
Hashimoto Naoko 睽違四年的海外展出，期間經歷了疫情，並且有了新的身份，成了一位母親。
Naoko的創作，從擅長的布料作為素材，也延伸到了紙張上的繪畫。
在訪談時她提到：「 有了小孩之後，更深刻地體會到時間是有限的。
花在創作上的時間，讓我能夠面對自己，這是一件很珍貴的事情，
同時我也意識到創作不僅是一種釋放，也是讓我保持真實自我的行為。」
作為一位藝術家與織品設計師，Naoko 自然真實的創作風格，能夠很輕柔的融入日常之中。
本次在台灣的展期，同時選擇在設計藝廊：朋丁，舉行以畫作為主的 Solo exhibition，
並且在工藝生活風格空間 CHUZI Dialogue 以衛星展的方式，展示生活家飾作品。
在CHUZI Dialogue 不僅可以看到繪畫作品，還展示了2024年最新的布花設計 ”Brave”，
以及各種織品家飾，這些作品與 CHUZI Dialogue 的理念相呼應：透過工藝和自然元素進行創作，讓藝術自然的融入生活之中。
