Originally from Japan, Miria Miria has lived and worked across Asia, Oceania, and the UK. Her artistic journey began in her 50s, bringing a distinct perspective shaped by diverse cultural and political environments. She holds a first class honours BA in Fine Art from Goldsmiths, University of London, and an MFA with Distinction from BALTIC x Northumbria University.
Her work has been exhibited in the UK and overseas, including solo exhibitions in Melbourne and Redcar. She currently works from her studio at Redcar Contemporary Art Gallery, where she continues to explore the layered relationships between human and non-human worlds.
Miria Miria is a cross-media artist exploring the shifting boundaries between the human and non-human. She not try to make something beautiful. Rather, she try to bring material-self to the fore or to express the seen in the best suited way.
She often use found plastics, wood, fabric, and other discarded materials to create assemblages that feel both artificial and organic, or paintings based on found images. These works become part of immersive installations—constellations of altered ecologies—where viewers navigate moments of stillness and transformation.
Creating and running this gallery has become both a major personal challenge and an ongoing art project, unfolding in the seaside town of Redcar in Northeast England.
The gallery supports contemporary artists—offering space for urgent, thoughtful voices to speak directly to the public and those in positions of power. It also serves as my studio, a place where art and conversation meet.
It’s a space where people can enjoy, encounter, and explore contemporary art—and perhaps even their own creativity.
A place where something exciting may—or may not—happen.
