Reiko Tada was born in Fukuoka in 1976 and graduated from Tama Art University (department of sculpture, faculty of art and design) in 2001. She also works under the name of "Lakin' the Kiiiiiii." In May 2002, Reiko formed "Kiiiiiii" (a band unit of art and performance) with Utako Tayama, her friend from childhood. She is in charge of the overall artistic output of Kiiiiiii. Her works have gained popularity thanks to the style of drawing, which displays a pop art-like color scheme, with a glimpse of cynicism. She has done some art works for other musicians and is broadening her activities. She also regularly provides illustrations for the magazines, "CUTiE" and "ELLEgirl." |
