Tokitoh Ayako
Born: 1970Born 1970 Tokyo.
Tokitoh attended Nippon Engineering College and studied under Kasai
Masahiro, well-known silkscreen artist. She has had solo exhibitions
in Tokyo and Osaka. Tokitoh also won the Tokyo International Mini Print
Triennial Prize 2002.
Tokitoh's prints are mainly of flowers,
coloured in delicate greys and blues. This is done by using a technique
of drawing the motif directly onto the screen and printing with
translucent ink. By repeating the process about ten times, she gives the image
substance while maintaining its delicacy.
