A Japanese artist / activist is active around the world.

She has been inspired by activists and researchers such as Martin Luther King 

and Jane Goodall which makes her work cross beyond the border of art.

From an artist's point of view,

she has been thinking about “the power of art and it's possibilities”

and “the role of art within society”

This passion comes from her strong belief 

“Bringing feelings and thoughts to and awakening their hearts and mind”

which is somewhat similar to how Picasso painted “Guernica (1937)” as a protest against war.

“Art becomes one language that transcends language barriers”

This is what she has been embodied through her works, and therefore would transcend 

many of the “walls” such as race, religion, age and body, using the medium of art.
