Kaori Fukuyama

KAORI FUKUYAMA is a multi-disciplinary artist from Kumamoto, Japan, who lives and works in San Diego, CA.  Her practice spans paintings, drawings, sculptures, and site-specific installations that explore the interactions of color, light and shadow.  She works with a variety of materials including paint, paper, monofilament, mylar, acrylic and glass in pursuit of a deeper understanding of our visual perception.

Fukuyama studied Landscape Architecture at University of Oregon and worked in the environmental design industry prior to pursuing her visual art practice.  Along with her studio work, she is passionate about creating art in public spaces, where the impact of visual art can be experienced by people from all walks of life regardless of their socio-economic backgrounds.  Fukuyama’s large-scale public art installations to date include Target North Park (2019) and County of San Diego Southeastern Live Well Center (2023).  Her work is a part of permanent collections at Panoptès Collection (Brussels, Belgium), Jacobs Healing Arts Collection (UCSD Medical Center, La Jolla, CA), and City of San Diego Civic Art Collection (Rolando-College Branch Library, San Diego, CA), and has been exhibited at multiple institutions including Laguna Art Museum, Oceanside Museum of Art, and San Luis Obispo Museum of Art, San Diego International Airport, City College Art Gallery, and Mesa College Art Gallery.  Fukuyama enjoys teaching at University of California San Diego Extended Studies program and continues to expand her artistic boundaries.
