Heart Hope Born and based in Wakayama Prefecture Has worked as a jewelry designer for 30 years. GIA.G.G. (Gemological Institute of America) Certified Gemologist and jewelry artisan. Began working as the painter Heart Hope in 2018. Life, Prayer, Peace Drawing on the sounds, scents, and atmosphere she senses in a given moment, she imagines a warm and gentle future beyond her artwork and incorporates it into her pieces. She continues to create works that allow anyone who views them to feel a sense of vitality and immediacy—and to be moved to reflection. Her methods of expression include acrylic paint, pens, oil paint, and digital media; at times, she also uses musical instruments. I always strive to cherish the “Now” and the “Future.” The past cannot be changed or altered. There’s no point in regretting it. Above all, I look forward. I purely embrace what my soul desires to do and what brings me joy. Beyond that lies a smile. I am made aware of small moments of happiness and, in the blink of an eye, am enveloped in love. I question the meaning of daily life while identifying with the image of us—living in the present—rising gracefully like a soaring dragon. ● Major Exhibitions Group Exhibitions Ginza Milleja Gallery (Tokyo) NOHO M55 Gallery (Chelsea, New York) Ginza NFT Gallery AR Exhibition (Tokyo) DIGITOMA 2022 (Agency for Cultural Affairs “ARTS for the future! 2”) (Nara) Philippines EXPO Stage Monitor Projection (Tokyo) and many others ● Major Solo Exhibitions Pino Terrace (Wakayama) Wakayama Library Tsutaya Bookstore Wakayama Branch (Wakayama) ESCS Cafe Spot (Wakayama) Wakayama Castle Main Keep Solo Exhibition “Like a Dragon” First Exhibition (Wakayama) Selected as an Artist for the 2024 Year of the Dragon Commemorative Exhibition Organized “ART Night” at the National Treasure Wakayama Castle Main Keep (Wakayama) ● Awards Won the Best Work Award at ladeco sneaker Received the Second Prize at the Art Incubation NY Open Call Exhibition Setouchi Art Festival UNO ART SOUND: Awarded Robizy (Robot Support Organization): Awarded in the Idea Category and Design Category
