Marie Higashi Joins AIFA
AIFA is excited to start exhibiting painter Marie Higashi.
Marie Higashi was born in Sasebo, Nagasaki Prefecture. She began her professional life as a nurse before turning to painting during a period of personal distress and crisis. To turn things around, Marie instinctively started to paint, marking the beginning of her artistic journey. She discovered in painting a powerful medium to express the fine line between life and death she used to witness in surgery rooms.
