sayuri sasaki hemann




YAY! I cannot believe I found this! Two years ago I was rushing through the Portland airport and was stopped in my tracks by this amazing installation. I quickly looked at the artist’s name printed on the glass and tried to commit it to memory as I ran for my flight… and then I forgot. Well, thank goodness for Pinterest, because yesterday morning I was drinking coffee and scrolling through the art section, and voila… textile jellyfish floating peacefully in a giant glass tank! I now know that this is the work of Japanese born, Iowa based artist Sayuri Sasaki Hemann. These gorgeous fabric jellyfish, and felted anemones {is that what those are called?} were part of a huge installation at the Portland airport in 2012, titled “Underwater Flight”. It really did look like a huge, magical aquarium… so peaceful, so delicate, amazing.

    They are so soft and airy feeling. Love the materials and the way that she used them.

    So beautiful and delicate – at first I thought they were paper. I would love to be wlking in the midst of this beautiful underwater world.

    So beautiful and delicate. The lighting in these pictures enhances the “otherworldly” (underwater) feeling of these. Speaking of underwater, the felted pieces look like sponges. Anemones are the multi-“fingered” plants clownfish (e.g. Nemo) abide in.

    I love that you found the work again. On a side note: interesting it was at Portland airport. Sea-Tac has art installations, also. Maybe it has something to do with the weather?
