“Cats, murals and quiet words of hope, from the street to the canvas”
Mimaaaaaaaaw is a visual artist from Cavite, equally at home in the streets and in her studio. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Multimedia Arts from Mapúa Institute of Technology. Known for her cat murals, she has left a trail of work across Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand, alongside exhibitions in galleries at home.
Her inspiration comes from two main sources: her feline companions and her own emotional journey. Through life's highs and lows, these become her means of expression — adorable, playfully distorted, colourful cats often paired with gentle words. Her mission is simple: to spread positivity and hope, both in the streets and in the gallery.
