Hiromi Tango

Hiromi Tango, who currently lives in Sydney, is born in Japan and married to the Australian artist Craig Walsh. 


Her amazing work which is usually an interactive multi-layered installation performance is a collection of colorful knitted yarns and found objects, sometimes toys, flowers, donated pieces from the public, you name it. The artwork grows and evolves together with the surrounding world and those in it.

"I am particularly interested in how the intervention of an artist in a particular space can generate unexpected moments of intimacy and evasion, and how fundamental aspects of human relations can contribute to the art-making process".
