Yuumi Asatsu

Yuumi Asatsu provokes contemplation through her art. She deconstructs everyday objects in such a way as to make the viewer reconsider what they know about the world.  In doing so, ideologies come under her scrutiny.  She dissects beauty, for example, in terms not just of its aesthetics but of its value.
Not one to stick to any single style or medium, Asatsu refuses to be pinned down by genres and stereotypes.  Unrestricted by an expected personal style, she is free to choose the best method for each individual artwork she creates.  Therefore, her artworks come in such varied forms as oil on canvas, pen and ink on paper, digital manipulations, and mixed media.  Likewise, the subject matter ranges from photorealist to abstracted and surrealist.  Even the most straightforward pieces, however, are in fact conceptual.  The titles of the works convey the artist’s meditation on life, but it is up to the viewer how each work will be interpreted.  

Yuumi Asatsu was born in Hiroshima and current lives in Chiba, Japan
