Broken
Drawings
by Emily Atkinson
Ms.
Atkinson is an artist and teacher originally from Austin, Texas,
who has been living in Tokyo for over a year. Her work
has been shown in various galleries throughout Texas, and has
spanned many media including sculpture, jewelry, electronic
media, and installation.
Her
current pieces are Prismacolor on wood, focusing on items in
need of repair. The maps in the backgrounds anchor these
objects in place – and aid in explaining the overall story.
Some of these objects literally need to be fixed; some
of them are indicative of a bigger umbrella concept that necessitates
change. A few are very personal, and all of them have
some link to Ms. Atkinson's life or travels.
These
pieces will be on display in the bar area for the month of May,
with an Opening Reception on Thursday, May the 1st, at 7:00
pm.

time I saw a drunk salaryman passed out cold in a suit on a
sidewalk in Shinjuku, I thought I had the photo of the year.
Seeing my second drunk salaryman sleeping on the street, I realized
there was something strange about Japan that no one ever tells
you about in the West. And I kept taking pictures of them.
And now this pet project has actually become an exhibition."
