I’m Mayura. My Japanese name is 山内眞由蘭(Yamanouchi Mayura). Studio#19.
My interest is in nurturing ontological ideas through animism, which could lead to an understanding of interconnectivity and a new(different) way of looking at our environment.
Currently, I work as a communication designer at a wellness school in Vancouver, BC. I completed a Bachelor’s degree in Communication Design with ECU and started my Master’s in Interdisciplinary Design in September 2021.
