Ayako Tabata, nicknamed Tabaimo meaning Tabata's little sister has established herself as one of the most original figures on the Japanese contemporary art scene. In 1999, at the age of twenty-three, she created her first video works and won the prestigious Kirin Contemporary Award. In 2001, she was the youngest artist invited to participate in the Yokohama Trienniale.Her style animated films that combine drawings evoking the handmade nature of traditional Japanese wood prints with sophisticated computer technology provides a brutally honest glimpse into Japanese city life through powerful, dreamlike images.
