R E M A

R E M A explores questions surrounding gender and social roles through bodies of work that use the image of the self as a mediating device. In her early practice, she incorporated decorative elements of the body̶such as makeup and costume̶to foreground questions of femininity through the construction of a staged “self-image.” In recent years, these images have shifted toward more abstract forms. Through physical acts such as line-based drawing and burning, traces are inscribed directly into the material itself. The motifs that emerge in this process appear icon-like yet retain a sense of the primal, drawing viewers into a sensory realm that transcends time and language. Her large-scale sculpture The Woman with Terrestrial Malady “LEM” (7 meters in height) was exhibited at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, and is scheduled for permanent installation in Phuket, Thailand. In 2025, R E M A founded ANTI MORAL SCHOOL Inc. In addition to the sale of artworks, products, and printed matter, the company operates spaces that generate encounters with diverse forms of expression through events and pop-up projects. It also provides studio spaces and exhibition opportunities for emerging artists, functioning as a platform that supports ideas and projects while exploring new forms of creation and exchange.
