[Product Information] WALL ART TOTE BAG | The art fencing that colors the city becomes a product that colors people
Heralbony's own business, the "All Japan Temporary Enclosure Art Museum"
The All Japan Temporary Enclosure Art Project is a community revitalization art project that reinterprets the "temporary enclosures" used to protect construction and housing as temporary "museums" where new discoveries can be made. For a limited period of a few months, a social museum will be born in the city.
Artists with intellectual disabilities working for local welfare facilities are bringing color to your city and the sensibilities of your neighbourhood.
Now, through a joint venture between the JR East Group and Heralbony Co., Ltd., a project towards a circular society will be born from Takanawa Gateway Fest.
It is a temporary museum that decorates the blank construction site fence with works by artists with intellectual disabilities.
A new cycle of value connecting the city and people will begin in 2020
A tote bag made from upcycled temporary enclosure art
The artwork that decorates the station has become an artwork that decorates the city.
Art tarpaulins printed with artworks will be displayed on temporary enclosures, and after removal they will be upcycled and reborn as tote bags. Advance orders for each piece of art will begin in limited quantities.
*Each design will vary depending on the cutting location.
Title: " Numbers "
Artist: Satoru Kobayashi
His favorite musicians are Billy Joel, Queen, Yosui Inoue, Spitz, and THE BOOM . He also loves going for walks. While attending a junior high school special needs school, Kobayashi began to write all of his letters in his diary and essays in a unique arrangement. At first, his teachers struggled to find a way to fix his writing, but he soon came to see it as an attractive form of expression. This was the turning point for his writing, and it began to take flight as art that brings joy to many people.
Title: " Wind Rondo "
Artist: Minami Takahashi
Her works, created by layering paint with copic pencils and crayons, at first glance suggest an intense artistic approach that requires quick pencil movements. However, in fact, her work is very slow and calm. Each color she paints does not mix with the others, but appears on the canvas asserting its own beauty, and the mysterious coexistence of intensity and serenity is captivating.
Title: “(Untitled)” (blue)
Artist: Midori Kudo
At times she is floating about, smiling and talking to someone around her as if she is dreaming. At other times she is alone, immersed deeply in her own inner world. Kudo's gaze drifts, chasing something that only she can see in her mind. Is it an image of happiness that fills her heart? Or is it to prevent pain and sadness from being reflected in her mind? Or...
Kudo's work has an endless quality, as if born from meditation. Is she conscious of creating something? When she draws, sews, or does something that is hard to understand, there is a mysterious air that makes you wonder.
Title: " Untitled "
Artist: Kira Yaegashi
At first glance, the paintings appear to be abstract geometric patterns, but many would be surprised to learn that they are actually original arrangements of architecture. Yaegashi created this style of expression on his own as a child, without any instruction from anyone, and has continued to create in this single style for over half a century since then. The number of his works likely reaches several thousand.
Title: " Origami "
Artist: Michiyo Yaegashi
Using brush markers, he creates detailed paintings filled with dynamic shapes and colors. Although he loved coloring books from an early age, he didn't start drawing his own pictures until he was 19 years old. Since then, he has been producing a succession of works with vivid colors and intricate compositions.
