I am in Tokyo, Japan for a solo exhibition. It opens tomorrow! I installed today. The new pieces are used washi (Japanese rice paper), dyed in indigo, then hand cut with a knife. The gallery is in Ginza, Tokyo, and it runs for two weeks. As a custom, I stay in the gallery everyday and talk with people!!! It is good to observe their reaction and hear some comments, but I would be exhausted by the end of the show. The image is "Cycle of Renwal #3". Dyed japanese rice paper in indigo, painted cutch and black oak. Put them together with a scroll technich. Hand cut out with a knife. Red paper was added. (by akemi cohn)
