蓮輪友子不像多數畫家選擇靜態的照片作為臨摹素材，也不強調構圖線條的精準度。她擅長利用電腦循環播放自己拍攝的動態錄像，透過肉眼的捕捉，將動態影像的局部拆解下來，形成一系列的「連作」，產生類似殘影（視覺暫留）的效果。有些是擷取景物局部，有些是記憶碎片或生活中的浮光掠影，讓觀者憑自己的視覺來調和其他色彩，進而對應自身的生命光譜，找到似曾相識的感動。
Tomoko Hasuwa was born in Osaka, Japan in 1981 and graduated from the Graduate School of Arts at Kyoto City University of Arts in 2006. She has participated in artist residency programs in Netherland and Madrid. Her works have previously been shown in Taiwan, Japan, Netherlands, Spain and New York. Currently, she lives and works in Tokyo.
Tomoko Hasuwa does not choose still photographs as her source material as most painters do, and she does not emphasize the precision of the lines of her compositions either. Rather, she often uses computers to loop her own motion pictures, capturing them with the naked eye and breaking down parts of them into a series of "sequential works," to create a visual effect similar to a residual image (persistence of vision). Some of them are partial images, others are fragments of memories or glimpses of life, allowing the viewer to blend other colors with his or her own vision, thus juxtaposing them with his or her own spectrum of life as well as finding a touch of déjà vu.
