Ashiko RATOVO: ‘Art has a profoundly therapeutic effect’ Following the Thread of Her Destiny

We are drawn into the fluid, dreamlike world of Ashiko RATOVO (b. 1995). In just three years, the Malagasy artist has forged a distinctive language of her own — poetic, abstract, and harmonious approach to watercolor that defies convention. Ratovo moves through her practice with organic ease, guided by intuition and memory, allowing emotion to dictate form.
