Renowned for her electric stage presence, her passionate, sensuous and highly stylized works are inspired by the richness of her intercultural and metaphysical explorations. These explorations include research into her own Japanese Canadian heritage, as well as the fiery explosive dynamics of Flamenco dance forms. She is drawn by the mysteries of the human spirit and is inspired by ancient mystical traditions, mythological archetypes and religions.
