Yuriko Yamaguchi (sculptor)

[2][3] Using more natural mediums, she creates abstract designs that are used to reflect deeper symbolistic ideas.

[6] Unable to speak English, she moved to the United States at the age of twenty-three and used art as an outlet for expression.

It was at this time where she began to build sculptures which incorporated multiple mediums, including wood and wire.

Such materials were used to symbolize delicacy and simplicity within Japanese culture – a life from which she gained much artistic inspiration.

In this time, she has presented 50 solo shows, mainly located in Japan, California and Washington DC.
