About the Item

A whimsical collage/acrylic on canvas entitled "Spider Kiss" by a noted Japanese artist -Misaki Kawai (河井美咲) (born 1978 in Ōkawa, Kagawa,) Her work has been shown extensively in the United States. "Her father was an architect and amateur painter and her mother made clothing and puppets". Kawai creates installations out of papier mâché, wood, fabric and other low-tech, "crafty" materials like felt, stickers, and yarn. She shuns expertise and uses an anime method called "heta-uma" that "risks amateur aesthetics by embracing basic expression". Kawai artist book, Blueberry Express, was published by Nieves Press in 2009.
