YOKAZE is an interdisciplinary artist working with oil painting, photography, video, sound, and hybrid formats. Her practice emerges from lucid dreaming and altered states of perception, where reality loses its stability and reveals itself as a layered, permeable field.

In her work, art is not the production of objects, but a method of engaging with altered perception. Through ritualized processes and sensory immersion, YOKAZE explores how familiar reality destabilizes and reorganizes, allowing deeper layers of experience to become perceptible.

YOKAZE investigates shifts in perception through lucid dreaming, music, hypnotic techniques, and engagement with natural forces, geomagnetic anomalies, and liminal environments — sites where reality begins to behave differently. Her practice is structured around distinct projects: VOID, which examines perceptual thresholds and layered reality; PORTAL, which focuses on paintings as sites of encounter with specific non-human presences; and an ongoing line of research into fear as a perceptual phenomenon emerging from subtle inconsistencies within space.

Her background in music, directing, cinematography, art theory, and philosophy informs a multi-layered, cross-media approach. Her current focus lies in hybrid formats combining oil painting, photography, video, and installation.
