U.S.A., b. 1974. Based in San Francisco, U.S.A., Yarbrough received a Master’s degree from the California College of Arts in San Francisco. She creates 2D art using pop culture images from the TV and the Internet and colored tape which she tears and assembles on the canvas. During her residency in 2007, she was attracted to aspects of popular culture such as karaoke and enka, noting the difference between non-Japanese, who sing karaoke in front of strangers, and the Japanese, who sing in small rooms with acquaintances. She was particularly interested in Misora Hibari, her fashion and her singing style. Some of the work inspired by these sources will appear in public for the first time in “Home Again-10 Artists Who Have Experienced Japan” exhibition.
