[ADAATeamRachel]

Asato uses art to help him get through his past traumas, and has started his own fashion brand labeled ASATO.

"Despite anxiety and depression, I was fortunate enough to overcome my traumas by learning how to repurpose them as inspiration. Today, fashion and fine art allow me to offer the world both a physical and mental embrace — one that affirms the essence of each individual and invites them to embrace themselves. Through ASATO, we seek to affirm the negative moments of human life, transforming past wounds into moments of quiet beauty and self-acceptance," says Asato.
