Yowa Yowa Camera Woman: Natsumi Hayashi

I've been following Natsumi's blog Yowa Yowa Camera Woman for a very long time and I always love her work, especially because she isn't using Photoshop to edit her magical floating self. Natsumi, takes 100's of pictures of herself jumping until she gets the right one, which I imagine can be physically and mentally exhausting. Now its wonderful to see she finally has her first solo show in Tokyo. The project -- titled "Today's Levitation" -- is the subject of a playful survey of her year-long obsession with flying. Natsumi's work will be on display at Spiral Garden in Tokyo's in Aoyama. Photos courtesy of MEM Inc., which will showcase "Today's Levitation" at Spiral Garden from March 26-March 31, 2013.

Olek and Parra at Jonathan Levine Gallery

I have a lot of catching up to do, my computer's hard drive decided to die two weeks ago and it took a week to get it repaired and then another week to get all my software and files back up. But everything is alright now and I will resume the regular scheduled program.
Let's start with this amazing show I saw yesterday. Olek is wonderful crochet artists, her work steps away from the granny chic we are all use to and goes in a hole other direction. Its fun and feels like a Fruits photo spread.
"Olek (born 5 April 1978,full name Agata Oleksiak, and known professionally as Crocheted Olek) is a Polish-born artist living in the US. Her works include sculptures, installations such as crocheted bicycles, inflatables, and fiber art. Her best known piece is a false apartment in which the contents, including the residents, were covered in crocheting. It was featured in various international media outlets. The work generally includes members of the public or the media, crocheted directly into the suit without traditional fasteners."

Next up is Dutch artist Parra, amazing amazing painter and sculptor. He using vibrant colors in his post-Pop imagery making the work feel like its coming alive.

Both are the Jonathan Levine Gallery,529 W 20th St #9 New York, NY 10011

Show ends tomorrow.

Remembering Japan Today

Today marks two years that the massive earth quake hit Japan. I remember Japan and its lovely people today and pray that those that lost friends and family can still have hope for the future. My heart goes out to you.

Snail mail and visitor from Japan

First off I have to apologize if my post look a little strange, my hard drive died and I'm posting from my iPhone. Going to take it to the Genuis bar at the Apple store later this evening, cross your fingers for me. As my computer sits silent I'm putting together my mini Japan memories zine that I managed to print before my computer bid me adieu. Anyway I wanted to share a couple of lovely snail mail and gifts from two wonderful blogger friends Ishtar and Ros.
