Background

Visual artist, designer, and researcher. Investigating the contexts of art creation, reception, and circulation, as well as its transcultural movements across various locations and media, her research and artistic practices involve creating visual and textual essays that explore the connections and interactions between Japanese and Brazilian contemporary arts and aesthetics. Hori’s works have been exhibited internationally in solo and group shows and are part of art collections in cultural institutions in Brazil, such as the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo, the Ribeirão Preto Museum of Art, and the PIPA Institute. In addition, she has extensive experience in the creative industry as a graphic designer.
