Mio Ito (b. 1995, Tottori, Japan) finds a kinship between her practice and the flow of time in nature. She creates her works by linking the randomness in a beautiful scene created by nature with the balance of chance in her own brushstrokes.

Ito received an MFA in painting from Musashino Art University in Tokyo and a BA in painting from Musashino Art University in Tokyo. The artist’s work has been exhibited at GALLERY HAYASHI + ART BRIDGE (Tokyo), Kodama Gallery (Tokyo), CLEAR GALLERY (Tokyo), BLANKgallery (Shanghai), KATSUYA SUSUKI GALLERY (Tokyo), Higashikasai Warehouse A (Tokyo), LOOP HOLE (Tokyo), and tatabookshop and gallery (Tokyo), among others. Ito lives and works in Tokyo, Japan.
