Rika Nakane

Rika Nakane is a multimedia artist who experiments with the hybridity of digital art, video, photography, and painting. Her work depicts a process of deep introspection as she wrestles with themes of self, gender, the male gaze, culture, and race. She’s spent much of the pandemic in Tokyo which helped her branch out into different mediums. Nakane views her work as a documentation of her emotional state and a recognition of her self-identity, kindling intimate connections between her work and its viewers. She is currently studying Neuroscience and Studio Art at UTSC and working based in Tokyo.
