Miho Takahashi

Miho Takahashi was born in 1985 in Higashi-Agatsuma, north Gunma. After she graduated from Gunma University, Miho settled on copperplate etching as her medium. Soon after, she enrolled at the famous Doumu art workshop in Tokyo, where she studied under renowned artist, Kamachi Seiji.

Miho creates fantasy worlds in which individual nubile women live alongside mythical beasts or abundant foliage, roots and flowers. Her 2022 work “Town of the Centennial Trees” features the eponymous trees uprooting and flying off in search of new lands.
