Artist and visiting professor at Kyoto University of Art and Design. Her work adds a unique spirit into the delicacy and depth of Japanese traditional arts and crafts, seamlessly connecting past, present and future while continuing to question the universality of the nature and expression of things. Working in a consistent, gentle style, her work that aims to shake up the audience’s established modes of appreciation and work on a more subconscious level has earned her great acclaim. She studied at National School of Fine Arts, Paris from 2008. The fourth anthology of her works entitled “Everybody’s Girl is Nobody’s Girl” was published in 2017. Since 2018 she has been the art director of display window art works for SHISEIDO THE STORE.
