Ohayo gozaimasu !

I went to the Taisho Chic exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW yesterday (Sunday). I really liked it. I'm no artist so I won't launch into an analytical exercise about the clash of Japanese culture with Western modernity.

Sometimes it's just nice to see things as they are, in all their beauty, without deconstructing every aspect.

Anyway, I didn't come here to preach either. I came to share. This was one of my favourite pieces from the exhibition:


It's called 'Two girls by the sea' by Kafu c mid 1920s.

I think I will have to go back for a second look. Just to please myself more than anything else.

How I miss the place..
