About Uyo Takayama : She is an extremely ordinary Japanese woman, but she wants to draw on the experiences she has had in her life, including her youth working in fast-paced mode fashion and markets, and later in life, fighting, watching over, and overcoming her own mother's incurable illness. By depicting the importance of having imagination for distant others who are not close to us, she is trying to offer something that will help a humane society where we can help each other.
STATEMENT OF ART:
In my illustration work, I try to create something warm and friendly that is easy to understand, while capturing the current times. For picture books, I try to create something that will be familiar to as many people as possible for as long as possible, something that won't disappear just because of a momentary fad, and something that will someday help readers in their lives.
