Akio Ohmori invites viewers into a realm where the ordinary meets the extraordinary. Through sculptural works charged with an untamed otherworldliness—dragons, arowanas, jackalopes—Ohmori captures a presence that is at once mysterious, weighty, and dreamlike.
Ohmori approaches his practice foremost as a sculptor, grounded in the traditions of wood carving. Working with wood and metal, he creates sculptures that quietly breathe with presence. From animal forms to abstract mirrored surfaces, his works bridge material and mystery, inviting wild and mythical presences into domestic spaces.
His practice thrives in the liminal space between reality and imagination. Through meticulous craftsmanship and sensitivity to material, he creates objects that embody a sense of duality – evocative and functional, expressive yet grounded, surreal yet serene.
