About 吉田 多麻希

After studying photography at a vocational school, worked in a studio with the purpose of becoming a commercial photographer. After working as assistant for many photographers in Japan and from overseas, and based on that precious experience, became independent as a freelance photographer. Long been interested by "the relation between people and other creatures" from an experience during childhood, and seeking to express it through photos, started to produce works of art in 2018, apart from her activities as a commercial photographer. Her doubts on human-centered perspectives is a theme she continues to take photos on. Her first work on the theme of what is energy?, "sympathetic resonance", that illustrates a world where various phenomena and substances resonate with each other, with visual expressions of the breath of creatures that changes with the heat, action and feeling within life by the use of thermography, has been praised by many curators, and won the Canon New Cosmos of Photography Grand Prize in 2019. Her second work, "Negative Ecology," focuses on the theme of rethinking the relationship between humans and wildlife in the wake of environmental pollution caused by domestic wastewater. The work won the Grand Prix at the Kyotographie2021 , KG+SELCT, an international photography festival held in Kyoto, Japan.  This led to her selection for the KYOTOGRAPHIE 2022 main program, "10/10 Celebrating Contemporary Japanese Women Photographers" where she will exhibit her work.
