A visual artist from Japan. Miku Sato’s work spans from video to installation and performance/workshop.

Born in Kanagawa, Japan, Miku Sato received her Bachelor in Painting from Musashino Art University, Tokyo in 2009, and completed her Master of Film and New Media Studies from Tokyo University of the Arts in 2019.  After she has came to the Netherlands as a fellowship of the Japanese Government Overseas Study Program for Artists since October 2019, she currently works in Amsterdam and Yokohama/Tokyo. Her art practice is based on the fieldwork of specific places, where she starts up a project, delegating her intention with the local people that she selects. Through video, installation and peopleʼs participatory action, her quest is to develop a new way of composing storytelling, taking a different approach from journalism. The recent video works are focused on the subject of women, who lived during war.
