Ekaterina Smirnova was born in 1970 in Moscow, but her childhood was held in Japan. One of the strongest and favorite children's experiences - the water element.

This vision is for a lifetime. The concept of space and the nature of Japanese culture is quite different than in Europe. The artist was close both.
