about me.

i’m nano, wandering through life between tokyo and elsewhere—endlessly fascinated by signs, visual or otherwise, and by how they quietly construct, reinforce, and sometimes unsettle what feels natural, normal, or taken for granted, as well as bend or undo those assumptions.
through making, researching, and developing things, i follow curiosity seriously, finding joy in thinking, building, and staying with questions that refuse easy answers.
