Yuki Ioroi

Yuki Ioroi was born in 1980, Shizuoka Japan. She started her career as an artist when she moved to Los Angeles in 2001, and participated in local artist showcase events throughout the two years. Her style of pieces was mostly abstract in these years. After returning to Japan, Yuki moved to Tokyo and graduated from Asagaya Art College, School of Image Creation in 2007. She started creating painting pieces that incorporated words of her messages, shifting from the previous abstract style. Yuki creates pieces that speak to the mind of people who have lost themselves in today’s overwhelming world. Being force fed with information from every possible direction, it is easy for any of us to lose our own values, or feel threatened to live up to the unrealistic standards portrayed by the media and social peers alike. Her words directly reach out to those who have convinced themselves of their created identities as their true selves. The recurrent concept of her artwork is to offer an opportunity for the audience to look within themselves and reflect. Through her thoughtful and playful words, Yuki wants her audience to dig deep to their conscious and find that something they might have forgotten while busy living. In 2011, she moved to London and continuing her career and actively participating local exhibitions.
