Junko O’Neill gained her MA and
BA in Fine Art Painting from Winchester
School of Art, University
of Southampton, where she was
given the Stephen Heffer Memorial
Award. Her work reflects the
Japanese spatial and temporal
concept called Ma. The concept
considers negative space having
a form of existence, with space
perceived alongside time. O’Neill
expresses this concept both in
figurative and abstract work, predominantly
using the medium of
painting. In March 2013 she had
her successful first solo show in
London entitled Fragments of
Time. She was shortlisted for the
Kudos International Competition
2013 and for the Celeste Prize
2011. She is a resident at The Sorting
Office Studios. Born in Tokyo,
she now lives in Winchester, UK.
