Born in Hawaii, USA and raised in the North of England by Japanese and English parents, Erika Kamano encapsulates her rich cultural background through storytelling. Kamano celebrates the organic human form—often found in nature creating intimate and ethereal portraits that build a visual narrative which transcend the viewer from reality into the surreal. Raw human connection and empowerment are at the core of Kamano's vision culminating in visual poetry. Her curiosity combined with a love of fashion help create sensational staged narratives.
