Sharon Nakazato turns her eye to the land of the Rising Sun as she draws from her varied and unique combination of Asian and contemporary American sensibilities. The works, sometimes abstract and sometimes ironic- as they reference mythological and totemic symbols, are rendered in an array of mixed media and disciplines from painting to print and collage. Nakazato’s artwork, the colorful, intellectual, collision of her training in Japanese Chinese brush calligraphy as filtered through western ethos, is an exciting distillation of cherished disciplines and joyful abandon.
As always, this event is FREE and open to the public.
