Magicthinking Exploring Exhibition


I will have my second solo exhibition from Friday, 15th December 2023 to Sunday, 17th December 2023. Come and visit us at Art In Gallery in Omotesando/Jingu Mae area to immerse yourself in the world of Magicthinking intuitive weaving.

The theme “Exploring” came about when I was traveling with my husband earlier in 2023. My husband had work in several cities and I was privileged enough to be able to tag along. Prior to traveling, I was somewhat anxious about not being able to work on my loom while I was away, as we were absent from home for weeks at a time. Worrying about whether I will be able to make enough projects for the exhibition, I changed how I look at things. Traveling allowed me see new places, see new things, meet new people and invoke new ideas in my mind. That is something that cannot be achieved if I was sitting in front of the loom. I then embraced the idea of learning while I am away from the loom and decided to let my mind be free from the restrictions that I once had when I think of my work as a weaver.

Some of the projects that I had done and will be displaying in this exhibition are weavings that I had done while traveling in New York, and some weavings using yarns that I had acquired while making friends in some of the places that I have visited.

This exhibition does not tell the whole story of all my experiences through the travel itself but rather a reminder to myself to have fun and enjoy the process of creating wherever I am at in space and time. A creative process does not have to be constrained just to one specific technique, or just one idea. This is the exploration of the mind and the soul. Searching for the happy moment in creating, and this is just the beginning.

I would humbly like to invite you to come and enjoy the exhibition, and hopefully can inspire you to also find your own exploration.
