もっと自分自身の自由な表現をしたいとの強い思いに駆られそれまでのキャリアや安定を手放し2005年独立。
しかし3年後、社長業のプレッシャーから意に沿わない仕事を受け始めたところ、売り上げが激減。苦難の時期を迎え、自分の本当の心の声を聴く大切さを痛感。

In 2005, driven by a strong desire for more personal artistic expression, Yoshiko made the bold decision to leave her stable career and become an independent artist. This move allowed her to explore her creativity without constraints, leading to a period of growth and self-discovery. However, the challenges of running her own business as a company president became apparent, and she faced a significant downturn in sales. It was during this challenging period that Yoshiko realized the importance of listening to her true inner voice and staying authentic to her artistic vision.

試行錯誤の末、軌道に乗せることに成功し、ロンドン、銀座で個展を開催。ロンドンでは雑誌「NEVER」に掲載されるなど大きな反響を呼んだ。
その後多数のドラマ、雑誌、ウエディング、イベント等でのフラワー装飾やアートのデザイン・制作を行い、2019年には優秀美術賞を含む日本アカデミー賞最多12部門を受賞した映画『翔んで埼玉』の花空間演出を任される。

After several trials and learning experiences, Yoshiko successfully stabilized her business and even expanded her reach internationally. She held solo exhibitions in prominent locations like London and Ginza, with her work being featured in renowned publications such as "NEVER" magazine, garnering significant attention and accolades for her unique floral creations.

Yoshiko's talent and dedication also led her to collaborate on various high-profile projects, including providing floral arrangements for the award-winning film "Ton de Saitama" in 2019, which received accolades such as the Japanese Academy Prize for Outstanding Art Direction in twelve categories.

それらの経験を活かし、友人や知人に向けて自宅や店舗の空間装飾というサービスを行ったところ、依頼が殺到。
和洋折衷のダイナミックな作品を得意とし、依頼人の着ている服や職業、企業理念、人柄まで考慮して作り上げる空間は、インテリアやリフォーム、店舗の開業、お客様に喜んでもらえる空間づくりなどに悩む多くの人や企業を救い、「最高の癒し空間」「ようやく自分のための場所ができた」「朝晩何度眺めても飽きることがない芸術」「明らかにお客様が増えた」などの声が多数。

Building on her extensive experience and reputation, Yoshiko Takai began offering services in home and commercial space decoration, blending Japanese aesthetics with Western influences. Her dynamic and harmonious designs have earned praise as "the ultimate healing space," "a clear increase in customers," and "art I can enjoy any time of day without growing tired."

さらに、空間装飾にとどまらず、オリジナル作品やフラワーギフトの個別販売も行い、著名な方からオーダーメイドの依頼を受けることもある。
コロナ禍においては、一輪挿しをプレゼントするなどのボランティアも精力的に行い、現在は、花業界におけるエンターテイナーを増やすためのフラワースクールを運営し、自身の専門技術と情熱を次世代へと伝えつつ、受講生と共に活動の幅を広げている。

Apart from her professional endeavors, Yoshiko is actively engaged in community work, especially during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. She participated in volunteer activities, such as giving away single-stem flowers to uplift spirits and bring joy to those in need. Currently, she is running a flower school aimed at increasing the number of entertainers in the floral industry, and she is expanding the scope of activities together with the students. Her goal is to inspire and educate the next generation of entertainers and artists, sharing her expertise and passion for creating beauty through flowers.

多忙を極める日々の中でも、料理やゴルフなどの趣味の時間を見つけ、そうしたひと時からも常にインスピレーションを受け作品へと反映している。TAKAIYOSHIKOは単なる芸術的才能だけではなく、逆境に打ち勝つ強さや決意、そして芸術を通じて社会に貢献したいという強い意志のもと、作品を作り続けている。

Despite her busy schedule, Yoshiko finds time to indulge in her hobbies, including cooking and golf, which provide her with relaxation and creative inspiration. Her multifaceted journey reflects not only her artistic talent but also her resilience, determination, and commitment to making a positive impact through her art and contributions to society.
