Yuriko Sasaoka

Central Ishinomaki Area

Born in Osaka. To find the connection between painting and video, she draws out a sense of foreignness and discomfort that cannot be found in high-performance CG images, similar to the traces of hands and brushstrokes in paintings, and spins his own unique story. With the meticulous composition and narrative, she create a realistic sense of a unique world that is nostalgic but that no one has ever seen before. In 2017, she participated in an artist-in-residence program in the Republic of North Macedonia, where she got a culture shock by the warmth and richness of people's hearts. Since then, she has deepened her interest in the real people, lives, and history of the European world, which is the closest to Asia, and has been researching and presenting her work in Central and Eastern European countries.
She is currently based in the shared studio "Vostok" in Kyoto.
