ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

I am Satoko Inada. I was born in 1973. I have been painting abstracts since 2000. After getting married and having a baby, creating my works while rearing them. Around 2017, I started working with flowers as a motif and continues to do so today. I have exhibited my works mainly in solo shows in Japan.

My motivation for my work is dialogue with my children. It is natural, but I believe that people are not always beautiful, that they live with unexpressed feelings, sometimes painful, sometimes sad, sometimes unpleasant, and sometimes unknown. I draw a flower that blooms in my heart as if to pray "please, please..." for the present and for what lies just a little bit ahead. In this way, I am repeatedly embracing, protecting, nurturing, warming, and waiting.
