Luna Ikuta is a Japanese–American multidisciplinary designer and conceptual artist whose work explores memory, impermanence, and time. Working across sculpture, media, and spatial installation, her practice explores how material processes can render the invisible visible, shaping contemplative environments that support human well-being.

Operating as a studio-led practice, Ikuta directs interdisciplinary projects across spatial, installation, scent, media, and object design for both private and institutional contexts. Depending on the scope and technical complexity of each work, she leads specialized teams to realize site-specific environments.

Best known for her Afterlife series, ghostly underwater landscapes of transparent plants, Ikuta’s alchemical approach bridges material science and poetic sensibility. Grounded in her bi-cultural perspective and industrial design training, her creative direction integrates emotional complexity with structural clarity, shaped by a fluency in material language and understanding of its perceptual response.

Based between Los Angeles and Bangkok, Ikuta holds a BFA in Industrial Design from the Rhode Island School of Design. Her work has been exhibited internationally in museums, public spaces, private commissions, and large-scale installations.
