Symbolic Links

Rei often uses natural elements such as animals and flowers for their symbolic links and dream-like qualities suggesting other worlds and a large part of Japanese culture that she shares through her family ancestry. The artist wanted to connect her works to the other works in the lane through the use of bright colour. For Kawa Koi, rather than working with paper-cuts Rei has selected brightly coloured vinyl as the material.
