Masako Nunokawa is a contemporary Japanese painter based in Hokkaido. Her works explore the intersection of spirituality, silence, and materiality through abstract ink paintings, embroidery, and traditional Japanese materials such as Nishijin textiles and washi paper.
With parents who graduated from art universities, she developed a deep appreciation for art from an early age and received high praise for her works. In her 20s, she settled in New York, gained experience in design and marketing, and upon returning to Japan, her innovative marketing strategies and achievements were recognized, earning her multiple president's awards and gaining her attention.
In terms of education, she obtained a PhD in art and cultural studies from a national graduate school in Japan, dedicating herself to art while also engaging in academic research. Her deep intellectual foundation has formed an aesthetic language that blends meditative practices with cultural symbols.
She is currently dedicated to creating “Neo-Wa” art—a fusion of classical Japanese aesthetics and contemporary spiritual exploration. Her three major series, “shroud.m,” “ascent.m,” and “flow.m,” express a transcendent journey from concealment to sublimation and liberation.
Each work is a meditative act, a visual offering—a quiet rebellion against speed, mass production, and superficiality. Nunokawa's works invite viewers to pause and connect with inner stillness.
She holds international exhibitions, aiming to redefine the commercial value of art through depth, sincerity, and resonance.
