Before studying western art in Paris, Ayasaki honed ink wash painting in Japan for ten years. She then acquired her fundamental skill in interpreting nature's colors in black and white. Resorting to emotions is the best way to explore her abstract landscapes. .................. She exhibits in major French art fairs, in the French Senate, and is invited to show her artwork in the UN Headquarters in Geneva and in international art fairs in Europe, the USA, Saint Petersburg... .................. Her artwork illustrated numerous volumes of poetry, and she is celebrated by several critics as the "artist of intuition". Rikka Ayasaki has received numerous awards and granted interviews to the media, notably to the French National TV - France 2 and Japanese and French radios.
- Won the prestigious Italian Literary Award, ”The 35th Prize for Literature award” (The french-italian bilingual poetic anthology, featuring Ayasaki's paintings including those on the front and back covers) « Entre ciel et terre – L'Olivier en vers » (Between Heaven and Earth – The olive tree in verse) published under the direction of Giovanni Dotoli : Poet and professor at the Sorbonne ( l’Harmattan, France and Edizioni Universitarie Romane, Italy)
