It’s no secret that I’m dying to get to Medalta in July for a month at their amazing residency facility. I’m barely keeping focused on all the work I need to get finished before I can pack up to go, as I’m so excited. I’ve been storing up ideas for new figurative work to sink my teeth into and I’m looking forward to truly having the time again (sans 2 yr old) to do some crafty arty thinking and producing.
And it’s not helping my impatience to be hearing tidbits here and there through the blog, twitter and facebook sphere from the folks that are there right now in the midst of an amazing residency with the incredible Robin Dupont.
I’m drooling over the pics that the lovely Rose Bauer has been posting on her blog Skiing in the dark. Rose not only makes amazing work (one of my most favorite cereal bowls of all time) but she is a true tease to me this month : ) ….my turn will come…

Because the society is situated in the country side and it’s close to the wilderness, a lot of wildlife is crossing the fields.

In 2006, TWS Aoyama Creator-in-Residence was launched at the former Institute for Advanced Studies of the United Nations University in Aoyama. In this central Tokyo district where many creative people gather, the new facility functions as a base for internationally oriented creative work for young artists from fields ranging from art and design to music and others, in concert with the stimulating environment of the Aoyama neighborhood. Along with the nearby TWS Shibuya, TWS Aoyama will become a center for art, and at once an international platform for true dialogue and exchange in the heart of Tokyo, offering artists space to reside, research, produce and exhibit works.
Accommodation is paid by host. Artist pays for food, production expenses and everyday living expenses. Located in central Tokyo. Additional information: E-mail [email protected] | www.tokyo-ws.org
