About the Artist
Clio creates art that invites people to pause, reflect, and feel connected to the spaces they call home. Her work intertwines culture and tradition with personal identity. She uses bright, vivid colors in her paintings and jewelry to capture the richness and beauty of life.
Clio is inspired by her outdoor adventures to paint paths and journeys into nature, revealing exciting possibilities and the unknown, exciting future ahead. Her art is also informed by her own multicultural upbringing speaking different languages and living in the US, Japan, Germany, and Brazil.
She graduated UC Berkeley in 2023.
How it Started
Clio has always enjoyed creating and sharing her art with people. In high school, she exhibited her works in galleries and museums across the United States. In college and presently, she has sold her art online and in boutiques along the west coast. She enjoys frequenting the art galleries and selling her origami jewelry and art at creative fairs in NYC.
Creative Inspiration
Clio lived with a host family and attended high school in Japan, an experience that catalyzed her interest in culture and language learning. While in Japan, she bonded with students over folding paper origami. This was a cultural tradition the students were proud of and something she was eager to learn. To share her Japanese art skills and affinity for fashion, Clio created a brand around her handmade Japanese origami earrings. Her art business is a testament to her passion for cultural immersion and tradition.
