Presentation
Murao studied art in Western New York in the late 90s. While studying installation and environmental art in search of her own form of expression, she gained exposure to social geography, landscape architecture, and other fields which deal with human relationships with space. After returning to Japan, she has consistently pursued an inquiry into how she can create sculptures that define human spatiality—the relationships and interrelationships between humans and their surroundings. Her recent works include sculptures that explore the psychological distance between human space and the horizon. In her Balcony series, she uses the balcony as a metaphor for a part of the human mind, the boundary between psychological and physical or personal and extra-personal space.
