About me

Born in a small town in Japan (b.1985) but growing up between Japan and Brazil. At home, I would experience one culture and a "totally different world" outside my home. I always felt different, having a low self-esteem because of my culturally different background, including my "exotic name", and also for doing poorly in school. That's why I embarked on what I was comfortable with: practising creativity and studying the history of the world.

Diagnosed in 2014 with ADD (attention deficit disorder), after having a blank during a commute to work, everything made sense. Marking an important discovery of myself, as my overthinking, VERY distractive and VERY forgetful but very creative pieces has a now name.

And so, I am someone multicultural, with fluctuating self-esteem, creative and forgetful everywhere for everything, but who also I believe pays attention to her own feelings and those surrounding me. I try to express all of this in my art, in my relationships and in my speech.

I firmly believe that Art frees, fills voids and communicates feelings. That's why, when I discovered myself as an artist, even intuitively, through the help of friends and colleagues, I felt this freedom to express myself and point out everyday events that we don't always have the courage to point out.

My works are varied as digital, mixed media portraying everyday life, the sense of belonging or not belonging, and anxiety as the main focus.
