At JSE, we are artists, storytellers, and thinkers, each with a unique journey, yet bound by a shared vision: to create work that sparks reflection, ignites conversation, and reconnects people with the essence of being human.

Art has always been my way of making sense of the world. 

Growing up immersed in diverse cultures, I found beauty in contrasts, the tension between logic and emotion, past and future, structure and fluidity. These paradoxes once felt like contradictions, but through art, I’ve come to see them as the very fabric of who I am.

Through each piece, I seek to bridge time and emotion, inviting others to find grace in the contradictions that define us. 

The JSE ethos is to be open to possibilities – to see art as a dialogue, a mirror, a timeless reflection of what it means to be human.

Music is as vital to me as air and water. 

It’s the way I express what words alone cannot. It is the language I turn to when emotions are too complex to articulate. If I can’t say it, I sure as hell can sing it.

For me, music isn’t just sound; it’s storytelling, emotion, and connection. I may not be the most technically skilled guitarist, but every chord I play and every lyric I write is a raw, honest reflection of my soul. My greatest passion is love – the beauty, the heartbreak, the complexity of human relationships – and that’s what I pour into my songs.

JSE resonates with me because it values truth over perfection, individuality over conformity. Here, we want to remind you (and ourselves) to create unapologetically and to be part of something that isn’t just about an object or a product, but about feeling, expression, and meaning.

Being Brazilian-Japanese, I have always lived between two worlds.

This duality shaped my love for exploring how people connect, not just across borders but through the shared essence of being human.

My creative journey began in design, where I found joy in bringing ideas to life – especially if it had the undertones of overlapping (and sometimes opposing) cultural norms. Over time, this evolved into a passion for digital art. 

At JSE, we are weaving together creativity, tradition, and technology – redefining  how we see and experience art in the digital age.

My journey with art has been one of discovery – of myself, of the world, and of the connections that shape us. 

I have always been drawn to the in-between spaces, where opposing forces coexist: structure and spontaneity, innovation and tradition, vulnerability and strength.

JSE represents the intersection of these elements, a space where art becomes a bridge rather than a boundary. I want to inspire others to embrace the fluidity of their own identities, to see beauty not just in perfection but in the ever-evolving nature of existence itself.
