Interview with Mari Ito

Our MIA Team seat down and talked with Japanese artists Mari Ito, who is part of ‘The fragrance that flowers emanate’ virtual exhibition inside our MIA Virtual Museum.

  1. How did your passion for art come about and what vision do you have of it?

Within the art world I feel very free. Through this, I feel the possibility of unleashing my imagination and emotions. Through my works I want to present my world, my thoughts to the public. Offer them the possibility of entering it to reflect and feel something new.

The fragrance that flowers emanate

The title of this exhibition proposes a tour of the different fragrances emanating from the flowers of the Japanese artist Mari Ito, understanding it as a journey into the interior, not only of the artist but of the Japanese people of today. Bearing in mind the importance that Japanese society affords to the collective or community, when it comes to showing emotions, in many cases, Art is an essential tool for transmitting certain thoughts or feelings. Thus, the artist Mari Ito makes use of such an instrument to offer us the aroma of her contemporaneity.

Interview with Virginia del Hoyo Torres

By Bastian Marin, August 1st 

At the end of my studies in Art History and passing through the Prado Museum as my first work experience, I changed course and launched into entrepreneurship. Art never abandoned me, but enriched everything that started. Immersive experiences have always motivated me, organizing plastic art exhibitions accompanied by music programming, literary presentations, debates; in short, out-of-the-ordinary meetings where culture flows freely.

1. How and when is your passion for art born?

Well, I do not think it was a precise moment, I think it is something that you bring from a young age, I always remember feeling encouraged by certain things through drawing or the pleasure of seeing details in images or in anything.
