Kyoko Shindo was born in Tokyo in 1982 and graduated in 2007 from the Graduate School of Fine Arts at Tama Art University. Kyoko Shindo's practices draw inspiration from everyday life experiences and undergo a process of introspection. Similar to the perpetual cycle of life, where organisms flourish and propagate through the symbiotic relationship between microorganisms and nutrients in the soil, eventually returning to the earth to foster new life, Shindo strives to reshape her personal narratives into fresh conceptual frameworks, giving birth to her unique artistic style.
With skillful brushstrokes, Shindo captures an ethereal essence reminiscent of lush, newly grown wool, infusing her creations with a captivating blend of softness and airy qualities.Her paintings exude a vibrant energy akin to organic vines, dynamically interweaving on the canvas to construct an inviting tableau that evokes a deep sense of warmth and joy, immersing viewers in a nostalgic journey through cherished memories.
