[Artist Profile] ■Artist Statement With the theme of "recognizing love," the artist depicts the moment of "realization" and the process of its fluctuations, using women as the main motif. From a young age, she developed an interest in the structure of the mind. Through psychoanalytic therapy and the experience of bereavement, she came to find solace and love in the act of first "recognizing" the contradictions, conflicts, and ambiguities that exist in both the self and society. She focuses not only on introspective awareness through observing the unconscious, but also on concepts in others and society that are easily grasped in binary oppositions. ■Brief Biography 1993 Born in Sapporo, Hokkaido 2015 Graduated from Hokkaido Bunkyo University, Department of Occupational Therapy 2021 Transitioned from occupational therapist to illustrator. 2023 Began painting career ■Main Exhibitions 2023 "Vague Love" (Gallery Inukai / Sapporo) 2024 "Black, Honor, and Monsters" (shisha modern / Sapporo) 2025 "HOTLINE" (Gallery Inukai / Sapporo) Art Fair "Ku-kan ARTIST’S FES" (Kukan / Sapporo)
