She graduated from the Kyoto University of the Arts Graduate School in 2023. Yamanaka has meticulously focused on both the contours of humans as physical entities and their conditions as phenomena, portraying the amorphous and non-human entities that lurk within this interstice. From her early works, she has consistently employed human figures as her central motifs. Her artistic style has transitioned from a representational depiction to abstract renderings utilizing random strokes. The canvas exhibits blanks reminiscent of whiteouts devoid of information, languidly flowing liquids in bodily crevices, and egoistic expressions and postures evoking selfies or artist portraits. By seamlessly integrating these elements across the canvas, she captures the very process of metamorphosis from the "self" to an ambiguous "other," elucidating our evolving visage as an entity inchoate and diverging from the conventional human archetype.
