Inside Art Head
Stephanie Inagaki - Artist/Jeweler
For ages, humans have used myths and folklore to express human stories and create space for the unknown through fantastical and surreal lenses. Stephanie's body of work is inspired by the fairytales and folklore of her Japanese heritage. Additionally, with the use of anthropomorphic creatures like foxes, crows, snakes, and black cats, the personal narrative is a means to connect with the world at large. Through the use of these ethereal protagonists, she explores the cyclical nature of life and death, the masks we wear for ourselves and others, and the ways love and loss inspire our own transformations.
Stephanie has won awards such as the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs Grant, Maria Ann Hsiao Memorial Foundation Scholarship,
Award of Distinction and finalist, Art Kudos International Art Competition,
Best in Show and Merit, and Creative Quarterly 10 to name a few.
Her sulpture and jewelry have been exhibited and sold around the globe.
