Japanese Summer 2025 Press Coverage

in , ,

My exhibition and associated events with several elementary schools in Yamanashi City led to some press!

  • Japanese national Yomiuri SDGs Newspaper (special educational issue of The Yomiuri Shimbun) featured my Tekisen Elementary School collaboration (part of my Nezu Memorial Museum invitational solo show and visit) in an article in July 2025.

Upcoming: You Want a Piece of Me? Exhibition

in , ,

I’m interrupting my Japanese posts (which will continue!) to share that the Summer 2025 ArtWalk is on Thursday, July 10, 2025, starting at 5:30pm at the Sioux City Art Center in Sioux City, IA. Visitors can walk from there to Gallery 103, 3Rivers Art Gallery, ArtSUX, and Vangarde Arts. At each venue, visitors will see artworks that follow the theme: You Want a Piece of Me? Over 30 local artists (including me!) have created art using a jigsaw puzzle, or puzzle pieces, as part of the art.

The Sioux City Journal published a cover article titled "Putting It Together" about the event and exhibition on Monday, June 30th with some flattering descriptions and a sneak peek detail of my submission which will be at Gallery 103. To respect the SCJ paywall, I'll just include an image of the part of the article that's about me! (You can click on it to expand the image if you’d like.)

Every location will offer a chance to see our art community's creativity, and snacks and beverages, too. If you want, you will also be able to use your phone and a posted QR code to vote for your favorite artwork! The First Place winner of the People's Choice Award will receive a fine-art wood-crafted jigsaw puzzle from Liberty Puzzles in Boulder Colorado. The Second Place winner will receive a $100 gift certificate to a class at the SCAC.

After the reception is over, I’ll share my piece in its entirety for those of you who can’t make it to the ArtWalk!
