Iyamari is a Japanese contemporary artist who has been active since 2008. She has held solo exhibitions and directed various art projects in Tokyo and London before relocating to Amsterdam in 2019.

​

Iyamari’s work primarily explores time and perception as its central themes, inspired by a near-death experience at the age of 20. Her focus is on creating a discernible model of “a moment” to examine and transcend the boundaries of human cognition, with the aim of expanding and complementing it.

​

With a background in traditional handcrafts and Japanese painting techniques, Iyamari utilises these skills in innovative, experimental, and expressive ways. Her artistic practice spans a variety of media, including multimedia installations and presentations. 

Notably, Iyamari is the founder and director of the Telescore Project, which brings together artists and performers from diverse disciplines, such as dance, music, and software programming.
