About Chie

Chie Ushio was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, where her passion for art began at an early age. She majored in Oil Painting at Tokyo Metropolitan Music and Art High School and later studied film at Nihon University College of Art.

 

Driven by a lifelong dream of living in the U.S., she moved to New York to study Graphic Design at the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in Manhattan. After graduating, she worked for over a decade as a book designer at Penguin Random House, shaping visual narratives through design.

 

Her artistic journey came full circle when she painted a mural in her home, reigniting her passion for painting. Today, she is fully dedicated to her practice, using painting as a medium to express her unique perspective and inner world.
