Happy New Year!

2011 has been a busy year, and looking back, it’s been hard to imagine where I found all the time! With my first big solo show and a few group shows in Japan, Australia and the U.S., some work on a music video, plus the daily grind of my regular job, it’s been a mammoth year. But it’s all been possible thanks to the generous efforts of friends, family, and the ever supportive internet community. Big thanks go out Gift Magazine and my friends in Joetsu, NoVacancy, BlackArtProjects, Ewan Macleod, Charles & Ford, PanelPop, Shaking Paper and Ghostpatrol in Melbourne, the very kind people at Domy Books in Austin, and the team at ThisIsColossal in Chicago. And to everyone, all the best over the new year break, look forward to seeing what 2012(year of the dragon) has in store. Be safe and cheers! Sean.

metabolism in the buildings…

Mori Art Museum in Roppongi Hills is currently holding an exhibition of various architectural work based on the concepts of metabolism pioneered by leading 1960’s architect Tange Kenzo. Based on his idea to build the city of the future where the buildings themselves could take on some of the features of their inhabitants, growing and adapting to the environment around them, his legacy and the works of other architects he subsequently inspired will be on display until late January next year. With a bit of luck, I hope to get down there myself and check it out, but in the meantime have a look for yourself, here.Mori Art Museum in Roppongi Hills is currently holding an exhibition of various architectural work based on the concepts of metabolism pioneered by leading 1960’s architect Tange Kenzo.
