about
Sho is currently residing in San Francisco, California, where she has been living the past 10 + years. She is half Japanese & half Korean.
She studied fine art and graphic design in Barcelona, Spain, where she grew up. This mix of cultures is often reflected in her work, which has been described as a merging of western European art influences with Asian influences such as, manga and sumi-e.
Her artwork has been exhibited at Disney’s Wonderground Gallery, the German Film Museum in Frankfurt and the Louisiana Modern Art Museum in Denmark, among other locations.
Lately her time has been divided between making style guides as well as her works in comics and her own art.
