Nori Okawa is a Japanese artist known for her unique ukiyoe style and variety of mediums. Her creation covers painting, sculpture, installation art and photography and other fields. Nori's painting style is inspired by ukiyoe hedonistic themes and techniques. In her illustrations, figures are reduced to a minimum of lines and shapes - the body is represented by a wide oval. Her work explores the relationship between humans and nature, identity, memory and social issues. She expresses thoughts and emotions on these themes with arts, triggering viewers concerns and in-depth consideration over human existence, environmental and social issues.
