About

Soft hoodie, good vibes, know what to say smarter than my looks, tech savvy, dress down low key and polished on good and less than nights!

Flèche is the Swiss French word for arrow. It’s actually the "Ya" in my name—Ai (love) + Ya (arrow). My grandfather’s been an Ono since the 1930's it’s a simple name like the Smiths, that’s been well-known by a musician’s wife and if you know music you’ll know her name.

Born in 1987, I am a WRITER and ARTIST living in New York City. I am a family friend of secrets untold, involving the Talented Mr. Ripley and other films. My cousin went to the same high school as Timothée Chalamet for ballet and I have worked in commercial and other genres of film with the 90th Academy Award Nominee for Best Documentary and AppleTV+ as research consultant and translator.

I was raised in Australia, New York and Tokyo and my creativity is inspired by “intricate stories we tell in another dimension”. I find myself in a dream space inspiring film, music and art. In real life I write about a neuroscientist who solves the world’s curse in Switzerland, traveling to Europe, Australia and beyond, just as I did. Humans are simply a matter of body tissue and neurons. What we create is what humanity is and who we are.This includes films, music, art and even the food that we eat.

As for emotions, can it be bottled up and recreated? Is it created by humans?

The body feels emotion, which is simply a matter of neurons firing in the brain. However, emotion contained is on the silver screen and can be seen throughout centuries. That is why humanity and being a human is creation.

For film, I am also known as Aiya Lauren Marianne Takahashi My legal name is Aiya Ono and my mother is a U.S. Citizen and I am 2.5% European (Spanish) and have mostly Japanese and some other according to a DNA test.
