Hello, I’m Mikie (Moti), and I’d like to share a little bit of my story with you...

I love art and eating moti, that Japanese rice cake. Art has always been my language, a way to see and interpret the world in a unique way. Since childhood, when I started by copying characters printed on various packaging or the Snoopy drawings stamped on cookies, to the more subtle details of everyday life — like the clouds, the silhouettes formed by raindrops on the window, or the patterns in the wood grain — art was everywhere around me. This curiosity and enchantment with shapes and colors have followed me through every phase of my life.

At the age of 10, driven by my passion for creating and reproducing drawings, I developed my own version of a mimeograph, using alcohol, tracing paper, and carbon paper. It was my first experience with reproducing art, and through this, I had the chance to share my creations with others. At 13, with the unwavering support of my parents, I dove into screen printing, built a darkroom, made my own screens, and even created campaign t-shirts for my father, who was elected councilman that year – perhaps my prints gave him a bit of luck!

At 16, technology unexpectedly entered my life. I started teaching computer science and discovered Corel Draw, which became a turning point for me. Digital tools gave me the freedom to create whatever I had always dreamed of: limitless drawings, capable of turning ideas into images with precision and infinite possibilities.

When the time came to choose my career, art school was undoubtedly my path. However, an incident prevented me from following that route. Rather than giving up, I found a new direction in the field of Computer Science, where I could combine my passion for art with the world of digital technologies. It was in this intersection of creativity and innovation that I discovered a new way to express my art and transform ideas into unique visual experiences to share with you and the world!

I believe that art has the power to connect, inspire, and transform. Every piece I create is thought out and brought to life with heart, because to me, art is more than just aesthetics: it is a way to touch the world and the people around us.

I’m so glad to see you here in my creative universe, where every stroke tells a story, and every creation carries the soul of its maker.
