This exhibition is a 10 Year Retrospective, displaying the diversity of Michelle's work ranging from the lush and colorful "PETALS" series to the beautifully composed "DRAWING SERIES" that are both body adornment and wall sculpture.

Join us to see how Michelle plays with colors and forms, and uses a wide range of materials, such as colorful organza, glass beads, 18K gold leaf and plexiglas to create astonishing and dramatic pieces.

We look forward to seeing you !

Artist's Notes:
Chihiro has always loved creating precious little things, even from an early age. At first she thought she would become a painter when she started college as a studio-art major. There she discovered endless possibilities with three-dimensional materials. She learned how to work with wood, fiber, and metal. Transferring to a different school gave her the opportunity to meet another material: glass. Chihiro completed a bachelor‘s fine art degree at the Massachusetts College of Art as a glass major with a minor in small metals/jewelry in 2000.

Chihiro has won several awards, including the Saul Bell Design Awards from 2003 through 2007 and the Niche Award in 2005.
