  • Summary

  • It’s time for another episode of the Create Shift podcast!I hope you enjoy listening to this conversation with my guest Kimberly Kuniko (aka Lacelit). This is a beautiful conversation filled with magic all about creativity, the ‘rules’ around it and our mutual desire to abandon them. If you’re in a place where you feel your artistic identity is shifting, where you’re questioning if you’re allowed to do something - if you have the ‘right’ experience - this conversation will be like a magic balm for you. Kimberly Kuniko (she/her) is a mixed-race Nikkei American illustrator, collage + mixed media artist, and poet based in what is now known as Los Angeles, California (unceded Tongva land). Her Japanese roots inform her art through a love of paper, finding the connection between things, balancing delicate detail and texture, and layering stories together. She enjoys designing for her stationery brand Lacelit, hosting guided retreats for creatives of all mediums, and facilitating the Dream & Scheme Community for Small Business Owners.
