MITSUKO SONE
Born in Kanagawa prefecture, Japan
Graduated from Musashino Art University, Tokyo, Japan
Lives in Tokyo, Japan
I’m a visual artist based in Tokyo.
My works are mainly site-specific installations.
Based on the theme of “presence of time”, I’m seeking my work using metals, photos, and source of life such as water, soil and light, to help keep the memory in the senses of people.
On the other hand, another work of mine, by the Title "The curtains of the wind" is participatory art, using cloth.
