The exhibition will feature works from the series "Charmed by Japan", which has been in development for 15 years, as well as this year's newest series, "Queen and Bear"; telling the story of the friendship of the pair of title characters. The project is a breakthrough for the artist, as it is the first time she chooses to put herself in paintings and tell the story of very personal experiences, fantasies and inner journeys.
