About me
Hello, I’m Riko. I’m an artist and visual designer based in Tokyo.
This is where I explore emotion, texture, instinct, and contradiction. My work moves between painting, drawing, embroidery, and illustration. I follow what’s honest, not what’s cohesive.
Some believe that artists need a consistent, polished style to be taken seriously. I believe in freedom and doing whatever you want.
Who says you have to be “established” to show your work?
This little virtual corner is an invitation:
Be brave.
Make messy things.
Share your art—even when it terrifies you.
Imposter syndrome? That’s just noise.
You don’t need permission. Your art matters. You belong here.
Maybe it’s not so scary when you’re not alone, right?
