ABOUT
I am particularly interested in the complexity of identity, as it is constructed across cultures, languages, bodies, and territories. Movement, whether physical or symbolic, occupies a central place in my research. It relates as much to geographical displacement as to inner transformations.
Sports practice, particularly in disciplines focused on self-improvement, also informs my thinking. It embodies this tension between effort, endurance, freedom, and body control. In my work, these notions become metaphors for personal and collective development. Body and mind unite toward a common goal, forming the pillars that propel us toward the accomplishment of our greatest challenges.
Through the exploration of movement, I seek to establish a dialogue between body and mind, traces and memory, in a quest for unity between the intimate and the universal.
- Artist and Photographer, I create visuals for brands seeking to differentiate themselves proposing an imaginative and expressive aesthetic. Being half Japanese-French and having studied fine art at Central St Martins in London, Parsons in New York, Beaux Arts in Paris and Tokyo, my artistic universe has been influenced by these vivid and hectic urban experiences. These cities, each in their own way, have profoundly nourished my vision and my world: urban, vibrant, intense and mixed.-
