Born in Argentina Buenos Aires Captial city 1982 with Okinawan Japanese roots. Currently working and living in Japan
My art is a blend between East and West, this blend, this “in between” from complementary opposites that had defined my identity and art expression became the channel were mixed cultures gathers.
It is through every art creation that I reaffirm my existence as somebody from this world and not subjected to the limits of a country. Working in different mediums I celebrate the life and the simple beauty within, when people contemplate my works I want them to feel magical the quotidian, but never too far from reality.
