She studied film direction and media design at Nihon University College of Art in Tokyo. She creates photograph collages, and video arts exhibited with sophisticated graphic designs. Her graphics are collaborated with a Japanese graphic designer called ZUANCOMONG. She had a solo exhibition and joined media art conference “New Media Art 2020” at CICA Museum in Korea. She has been represented by galleries (Espacio Gallery in London and Gallery Art Point in Tokyo) Codomo means “kid”. Her works are based on pictures and digital devices but she does not rely on everything digitally. She believes the way to express art is not important. It does not matter what she uses for art, because she thinks technology is just a tool in this age and an image is just the result of a trend. Memories are always the key in her work. The view of the observer is usually influenced by his own memory and evokes his impression of what he is seeing. For example, leaves remind us of blood vessels, a wall pattern of a face, sounds and smells can have the same effect. The impression depends on the observer. She thinks it is based on the personal memory of each other. She is mostly influenced from her childhood. Memories are important for her because her family has suffered from memory disorder. Additionally, her work is influenced by the ancient Japanese Shintou religion. In the Shinto way of thinking, animism is very important. The definition of God is quite ambiguous. Even plants, inanimate objects and natural phenomena can have a soul. She thinks this ambiguity has something in common with memory. She tries to express this ambiguity in her work.
