MINAMI KITABAYASHI

Born in 1993.11.16 Japan    /      Painter

​

​

I grew up in Thailand and Singapore.

My artwork is inspired by my surroundings and my interactions with people, and other living things. I often focus on the feelings of loneliness and alienation that I experienced while living in a foreign country in my childhood.
