Biography
Michika Noda (野田 倫加; born 2002, Kanagawa Prefecture) is an emerging Japanese woodcut printmaker based in Tokyo. She studies at Musashino Art University (武蔵野美術大学), one of Japan's leading art universities.
Noda's work was selected for the 68th CWAJ Print Show, held in October 2025 at the Daikanyama Hillside Forum in Tokyo. Organized each year by the College Women's Association of Japan, this juried exhibition and sale presents a large selection of contemporary Japanese prints — 208 works in the 2025 edition, spanning woodcut, etching, lithography, silkscreen, collagraph, and digital techniques — and is a notable showcase for both established and emerging printmakers. Catalogued as print number 112, Noda's contribution was 'What Has Ended' (終わったこと), a woodcut measuring 79 × 59 cm.
Selection for the CWAJ Print Show is by juried review of submitted work, and Noda's inclusion while still in her early twenties marks an early step in her printmaking career. As an emerging artist, she has little exhibition history documented in English-language sources beyond this 2025 showing.
