東京都生まれ。
幼少期を海外で過ごした経験を背景に、独学で絵画、テキスタイル、陶芸など自身の表現の幅を広げてきた。特に、メキシコの壁画運動における公共性とストリートカルチャーの身体性に影響を受け、現在は壁画を軸として制作に取り組んでいる。馬や蛇、植物、人物などを象徴的なモチーフとし、鮮やかな色彩によって構成される作品は、自身にとって言語の一形態であり、他者との対話を促す媒体でもある。これまでに在日メキシコ大使館や海外での壁画制作に加え、国内外のブランドとのコラボレーションも手がけている。

Born in Tokyo.
Schoko Tanaka spent a part of her childhood overseas, an experience that has profoundly shaped the foundation of her artistic practice. Self-taught in painting, textiles, ceramics, and other media, she has continually expanded her means of expression. Influenced in particular by the public engagement of Mexico’s muralism movement and the corporeality of street culture, she places mural-making at the core of her creative process. Her works, often composed in vivid colors and featuring symbolic motifs such as horses, snakes, plants, and human figures, function as a personal form of language as well as a medium for dialogue with others. In addition to creating murals for institutions such as the Embassy of Mexico in Japan and various overseas sites, she has collaborated with brands both in Japan and internationally.
