Mina Hamada was born in the United States and raised in Tokyo, Japan. Her life’s journey then moved her to Barcelona, Spain in 2009, where she met and grew to love the street art scene, diving headfirst into experimenting with such methods as graffiti and large-scale murals. While painting in public, space gives Mina Hamada inspiration through the communication with her surroundings; in the studio she works self-concentrated on her individual projects and investigates unknown fields of painting from the unconscious and improvisation.
