Thanks all round for some great shows

From a previous version of this blog

Shiodome Art Village

This was a great experience all round and a fabulous opportunity to actually build some pieces in front of an audience, get some direct

feedback and gauge general interest in the project. My sincere thanks and appreciation to Hayashi san of Nelke Planning, who organized the show

and Takeshi san the artistic coordinator, for giving me the opportunity to participate. The art village was constructed around the Taro exhibition and gave passers-by the chance to see original artworks being made as well as watch live performances of various artforms. The Shiodome Shiosite was a fantastic venue for the exhibition. and hopefully they will host a different show next year too.

Geisai #10

This Sunday was another valuable experience in Japan. It`s fantastic to be able to show your work to people who love and appreciate what youre trying to do. My thanks to all who stopped by. I just wish I could communicate better in Japanese..... in time hopefully! I was also delighter to win my first award here in Japan. Mr Nakano, the Managing Director of advertising for Pentax Corporate presented me with the Pentax Award for Geisai #10. It was a wonderful surprise and slightly nerve wrecking to get up on stage in front of so many people and be interviewed. But I`m really grateful for the experience and Ill never forget it.
