Born in 1973 in Kumamoto, Japan.
Yasutaka Seki began his career as a photographer in the music industry, based in Okinawa and working both domestically and internationally. Following the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake, he shifted his focus toward personal artistic practice. After returning to his hometown, he began creating works centered around the theme of the relationship between people and the land.
In 2017, he presented Nostalgie, a solo exhibition documenting his departure from Okinawa. In 2020, he released Just sing, a project capturing the lives of musicians during the COVID-19 pandemic.
