Recently AIRY visited the delicious Cafe M to see an exhibition of Kamijo Akitaka. We sat on the decking next to Lake Saiko and chatted to the humble artist about his work and inspirations.
Living nearby to Lake Saiko, the artists house and studio is completely surrounded by forest. It is this environment that the artists draws inspiration from and depicts in his paintings, drawings and small sculptures.
His most recent work also uses collage, and this medium works perfectly for him in playfully layering landscape and narrative. He finds it interesting to pull details from one piece to the next, and note the changes it creates in both works.
We are very happy to have Kamijo in our upcoming exhibition Australia/Japan exchange exhibition: Visible Horizon!
