The window at my studio

Looking through the window, eating yogurt and soy yogurt.

– What is the first art book you remember?
I wasn’t surrounded by art books growing up so I don’t recall any.

I haven’t been listening to a lot of music lately but I do sometimes listen to my friends’ music, haruka nakamura and baobab.

– What is the favourite thing you have in your studio?
The window.

Did you always want to be an artist?
Yes, indeed.

A nap with my child.
