Dirty Little Secret by Tricia Tanaka

I’m Tricia Tanaka — a dreamer, creator, and above all, a lover of life. Born in Los Angeles, I’ve also called New York, Montreal, and Mexico home — each place leaving a lasting imprint on my perspective and creative voice.With a degree in Graphic Design from Cal Poly Pomona, much of my artistic journey has been self-taught and guided by curiosity. I launched my own fashion self labeled brand and Spiders & Caviar, and over time, my creative practice has expanded into new forms.Most recently, I founded Dirty Little Secret, a concept pop-up that weaves together art, fashion, events, and workshops — a living space for creativity, community, and connection. Alongside my creative pursuits, I’ve spent over 25 years in the world of hospitality, mastering the art of mixology.Philosophy, travel, culture, and nature remain my constant muses, shaping not only my work but my way of seeing the world. For me, creating is an act of devotion — a way of weaving beauty, joy, and connection into everyday life.
