Official website: http://shojonotomo.com/ English Info: http://sweetstreetsla.com/artist/shojono-tomo Shojono Tomo's show at the Edo-Tokyo Museum featured a retrospective of several of her recent projects along with a live painting event. A recurring theme in Shojono Tomo's art is "Skinship". The artist creates clothing that is meant to be worn by two (or more) people. These conceptual "skinship" garments require the people wearing them to be touching each other skin-to-skin, encouraging closeness. At the Edo-Tokyo show, a number of the artist's skinship pieces were presented on models. Shojono Tomo also created a new skinship work live on stage. The new piece was used in a wedding ceremony which closed the show.
