Born in Japan. Studied in Japan and the U.S.A.

Ichiki is a self-taught artist and resumed her creative activities, including visual and per-forming arts, a few years ago. She enjoys being involved in various forms of art because she can feel that she is living her own life through them. Also, she attempts to reach a state of flow through her creative work and seeks opportunities to feel resonance through collaboration with other artists and other creative fields.

She's pleased to introduce her works using a technique she developed and named "Flower Cells". She discovered this technique by accident while working with fluid acrylic paints and is still working on improving it. For a work to be successful, various elements must be in optimal condition. For this reason, the success rate is currently less than 10%, and successful works are rare. Beyond the many failed attempts, "Flower Cells" appear on the canvas. It is a beauty that can never be recreated in the same way again. She is happy to show you some of those works here and hopes you enjoy them.
