Sayako Hiroi

Sayako Hiroi is a Japanese visual artist based in Boston, working across painting and traditional kintsugi. Her practice responds to silence and erasure, and to the unseen traces of presence, drawing from feminist ethics and Japanese visual archives. She holds an MFA in Fine Arts from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University and a BA in Ethics from Keio University in Tokyo, and has been an artist-in-residence at institutions including the Vermont Studio Center.
