about us
Studio Frog is co-run by Japanese writer & photographer Kiyomi Yui and Dutch musician Mick Ness.
Kiyomi Yui
Born in Tokyo, based in Amsterdam
Writer and photographer
I approach my work with genuine curiosity, looking for new contexts that might change how things are seen and what they might become. Moving between places and points of view, I focus on what becomes visible from elsewhere, especially when what is already known no longer quite fits.
Much of my work has developed between Japan and the Netherlands. My growing curiosity about the geopolitical context of Europe has taken me further across the continent.

Mick Ness
Born in Amsterdam
Musician, composer
Dutch guitarist, singer, and composer. He emerged from the Dutch Ultra movement in the early 1980s (an Amsterdam-centered post-punk/new-wave underground scene) and later fronted the Hungarian band Sexepil (1989–2007). After 2007, he has focused largely on solo work under his own name, while also fronting Stakbabber and collaborating on projects such as Mecano Un-Ltd. (with Dirk Polak). Releases include titles on Amsterdam-based Out Of Print Records and solo albums via studio frog.
