After graduating from Shoin Women's University, she won the Mayor's Award and the 15th Anniversary Award at the 1962 Ashiya City Exhibition for her work in which she drilled countless holes into cardboard, and joined the Gutai Art Association the following year. Since then, she has expressed magnificent cosmic spaces in a series of wall-covering works, centered on concentric reliefs created using a rotating plate and resin. In 1970, she also created the dome pattern for the Japanese Government Pavilion at the Osaka Expo, and continued her creative activities even after the group disbanded. She is an avant-garde female artist who is receiving renewed recognition both at home and abroad.
