NYC friends: this Friday my friend Misako (who created the cover art for my True North album) is opening her gallery. The opening reception will also feature music and video from my Redeco soundscape project. Her work is awesome, worth stopping by!
On May 2, dive into the captivating world of Misako OBA at her upcoming opening reception, In and Out of the Blue.
Misako’s artwork embodies a profound exploration of hope and resilience, emerging from the depths of struggle, loss, and grief. Through her semi-abstract and conceptual series, she channels personal experiences into visually compelling narratives that reflect both darkness and light. Over the past decade, she has experimented with a diverse range of mediums, including encaustic, watercolor, oil, acrylic, and printmaking, each layer infused with emotion and meaning. A pivotal moment in her artistic journey came with her first photographic work, where she discovered the healing power of creativity. The process of printing in the darkroom became not just an artistic endeavor but a form of physical and emotional relief, easing her pain and guiding her toward solace. For Misako, art is more than expression — it is a spiritual journey led by God, the source of her strength and inspiration.
