 I am a mosaic artist, born in  Japan and graduated
 from Nihon  University College of Art.
 
 
 
 I mostly use recycled materials for my mosaic.
 I love making something out of nothing
 without waste….
 All the pieces are cut by hand, without power tools.
 
 
 
 My work is influenced by Japanese art,
 the essence of Japanese Art: beauty of  nature
 without human influence, simplicity, space  and balance.
 Also my creativity flows in part from my music.
 From 4 years old, I trained to become a  pianist,
 then I found a magic in the theatre and I became an stage actress.
 After that, I went to Africa, travelled a lot and had a lots of adventures!
 
 I still play piano in between the mosaic. 
          There  is something very connected between playing music and making mosaic...
 Perhaps you  can hear the music from my mosaic?
 
 
 
 The process of shaping and placing a tessera
 (a piece
          used 
          in mosaic) is very calming and thrilling
 at the same  time. 
          Sometimes I dance in my studio with
 excitement 
          when I get it just  right.
 Making mosaic takes your mind off daily life and places  you 
          in a
 different world deep within yourself, 
          your imagination,
 your dream, your safe place.
 And the possibilities are endless!
 
 Mosaic is, quite simply, my passion and
 I hope my mosaic makes you dream too.
