Japanese artists ARKO, Takuya Hamajima, and Ryosuke Harashima are holding a trio exhibition at Shibuya gallery Somewhere Tokyo titled ‘Changing Attitude’. Each artist uses traditional Japanese materials and techniques applied through their own unique and contemporary lens. ARKO most recently drew attention for her collaboration with Loewe at Milan Design Week, her straw creations featuring in their courtyard exhibition that honored the art of weaving. For Changing Attitude, the self-described straw artist made a wall sculpture our of rice straws, stitching the fronds together with thread rather than weaving. The piece is similar to her work for Loewe, whereby she worked with leather strips rather than rice straw. Sculptural artist Takuya Hamajima takes an extreme A to Z approach with his sculptural works of art and design, developing most of the materials used himself before moulding them into objects. For ‘Changing Attitude’, Hamajima displays fine-tuned and contemporary lights, shelf, and stool made from steel, timber, and ceramic. Hamajima has a particular interest in experimenting with ceramics and using the material in non-traditional applications. Graphic and product designer Ryosuke Harashima creates furniture by utilizing old Japanese folk craft techniques and antiques. Harashima utilizes traditional Japanese tools combined with modern industrial materials. His bamboo lattice table combines an antique Japanese bamboo basket with a gold steel frame and glass top. - 转载自：Yellowtrace
