Rina Ota

Based in Barcelona, Japanese artist Rina Ota is also an actress whose creative practice is rooted in intuitive expression rather than words. Just as she is drawn to improvisation in performance, she approaches painting without a predetermined outcome. Instead, she surrenders to the sensations and emotions that emerge in the moment, allowing them to guide and shape the image as it unfolds. Her work reaches its completion when it discovers its own story.
