Chiaki Horikoshi is a celebrated painter, essayist, potter, and singer. He spends his time traveling between the cheerful warmer climates of Spain and the Wabi-Sabi concepts of Japan in order to encourage the free rugged style in which he creates his scenes of art.
For the next ART colours exhibition, Chiaki Horikoshi’s Wabi-Sabi, we have enticed him from his tea house in the mountains of Kamiizumimura in order to display the art he created on his many travels around the world.
