Profile

University of the Arts Londonを卒業後、ベネトン社主宰のアーティスト・イン・レジデンスFABRICAで日本人初の写真家としてスポンサーを受け経験を積み、ヨーロッパ各地で活動。その後もCanon、資生堂、L’Orealなど多数の企業からスポンサーを受ける。
植物や風景、人の肌など、アノニマスな被写体を通して、アブストラクト、そしてシンボリックに、人のDNDレベルでの記憶や、命の儚さや美しさ、をテーマに、日本人特有の自然観を生かした作品を発表。外側にある事物を通して内面の感情や美を表す、ある種、借景の思考や俳句表現のような日本古来の表現手法を用いて、自身の体の奥底に眠っている感情を作品に内包させる。
また、社会に潜む様々な問題と向き合い、その裏にある言葉にならない感覚や感情を独自の撮影手法にて視覚化し、国境を超えたビジュアルコミュニケーションを目指す。
Four Seasons Otemachiでは、全客室のアートワークを手がけるなど、建築家とのコラボレーションや空間デザインの分野においても表現の場を広げる。

Profile

Namiko Kitaura was born in Tokyo in 1977. After graduating from University of the Arts London, she attended FABRICA (the Benetton communication research centre) as an artist in residence.
She produces distinctive images with a strong, personal voice with use of a unique Japanese view towards nature and the relationship between life and nature. The implied Romanticism within her works is both abstract and absolute. Through anonymous subjects such as plants, landscapes, human skin, the images contemplate each other sensually, with a sense of graceful motion suspended in a non-temporal framework. With her unique techniques, Namiko aims to visualize the almost invisible aspects of the human condition that lie below the physical, and their juxtaposition in a symbolic and metaphorical way: passion in depression, comfort in sadness, tranquility in chaos and beauty in ugliness.
Her main theme has been related to people's DND level memories, the transience of life, and beauty of this transience.
