Ekotumi
Artist, Singer-songwriter, Dancer, performer, and novelist inspired by Japanese mythology.
Shinto culture examination (Jinja-kentei) level 1 (highest).
As a singer- songwriter, I create my own world by mixing ancient story with nowadays music and have developed the ‘Kojiki new translation series’ - a Japanese-style contemporary opera with a personal interpretation of Japanese mythology through song and dance.
Since 2015, I perform in concerts over the world, beginning with Europe. I also writes Japanese mythology novels aside my singer career.
As an artist, I was granted the prize ‘KDCC Northern Kyûshû digital creative contest’ with my collaborative art with Anderson Sudario in 2018. My performance video was chosen for the Berlin ‘WomenCinemakers Biennial2018’. I was also awarded the grand prize for the regional art festival MMM in 2021 via community art inspired by Japanese mythology.
Under Covid 19, I created new style works like ‘Covid 19-20 project’, a collection of musical work using soundscape of the current world affected by Corona, or else ‘Spray chorus’, a work of art playing my voices when someone approaches the sprays of antiseptic solutions, and hologram "A little god, Sukunabikona", a real music experience with 360 degree screen and sound system instead of real concert.
