ARTIST INFO

Tomoka UENO

Tomoka UENO

Born in Nagasaki in 1983, Ueno is a Kyoto-based artist working in film and photography. Capturing the female nude as her predominant subject, Ueno shares an intimate period of time with her subject to photograph “the moment when the subject’s state of being changes and becomes visible via the body”. Ueno utilizes the camera as an intermediary to capture the essence of being, such as identity, sexuality, and gender.
