Yuki Asano - From Pupa

Yuki Asano is a Japanese artist based in Berlin, known for her evocative paintings, drawings, and installations. Born and raised in Kobe, Japan, Yuki studied oil painting and mixed media at the prestigious Kyoto University of Art and Design.

Her work explores the delicate balance between memory, emotion, and the passage of time. Yuki's art is often inspired by her personal experiences, blending fragments of her daily life with her past to create works that invite viewers to interpret and connect with their own memories.

Yuki primarily uses acrylics, pastels, and mixed media, often working without preliminary sketches to allow her spontaneous imagination to shape the final outcome. Her process involves layering colors and textures to evoke a sense of depth and complexity, mimicking the way memories accumulate and fade over time. Yuki’s artworks are known for their light, almost ethereal quality, with an undercurrent of profound emotional depth.
