1990年 宮城県生まれ。
浅野友理子は、その土地の食文化や植物の利用法を学ぶために様々な土地を訪ね、出会った人々とのやりとりや自身の体験をなぞり、その土地で受け継がれてきたものを記録するように絵画を制作しています。それらの作品は、単なる植物画にとどまらず、土地に長く伝わる知恵や知識に着目し、現代社会で失われつつある人と自然との共生や、人間以外の生き物に対する視点、生命の循環、あるいは女性の労働など、きわめて現代的な問題意識を内包しています。そしてその色彩豊かで生命力にあふれる絵画作品を通じ、浅野はこの豊かな世界を祝福しているのです。

Born in Miyagi in 1990.
Yuriko Asano visits various places to learn about local food culture and usage of plants, tracing her own experiences and interactions with the people she meets, and creates paintings as if she were recording what has been handed down in the local area. These works are not mere botanical paintings, but rather focus on the wisdom and knowledge that has long been passed down from generation to generation in the local area. They also include an awareness of contemporary issues such as the symbiosis between humans and nature, which is being lost in modern society, the perspective on non-human lives, the cycle of life, and women’s labor. Through her colorful and vital paintings, Asano is trying to celebrate this rich world.
