over the weekend, the news from japan only seemed to get worse. i’m so sad to think of the loss of lives and destruction. i’m sending my thoughts, especially, to the wonderful people in japan i have gotten to know over the years through my work.

my favorite shop in japan, klala, has a show up now called brooklyn market. i helped to curate the artists featured in the show:

maria alexandra vettese
tamar mogendorff
hikaru furuhashi
sian keegan
shabd simon alexander
christopher silas neal
lines & shapes
maptotes

the show looks so great. i wish i could be there in person to see it.
