An artist who creates light works that resemble transparent membranes by connecting natural leaf veins with needles and threads.
After graduating from university, she studied dyeing and weaving at Kawashima Textile School, and while still in school, she has been creating modeling work made from stitched leaf veins.
The themes of her works are “strength in weakness,” “things that cannot be seen but definitely exist,” and “vague boundaries.”The transparent, lace-like veins of the leaves may seem fleeting, but they are the path that carry the energy of life. During the production process, she examines the uniqueness of each leaf, such as the degree of curvature, hardness, and thickness, and decide how to incorporate them into the work.
In recent years, instead of using the leaf veins as they are, I use scissors to cut them into arbitrary shapes. By cutting the leaves, a contrast is created between the lines and surfaces, creating beautiful silhouettes and shadows. The presence of shadows created by her works is an important element in her works.She has worked both domestically and internationally and has won awards at exhibitions in France, Spain, Austria, and Hungary.
