Drawing on memories from his childhood in
Japan, Akio Takamori’s Three Women is a collection of cast-aluminum
sculptures depicting a girl, a young woman and mother with her baby.
The figures are all about the same size, suggesting that these three
people are of equal prominence in Takamori’s mind’s eye. Though they
have come together and stand facing one another, they aren’t
interacting, preferring instead to avoid each other’s eyes and keeping
a close watch on the space around them.
