On the 4th Day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a limited-edition print by
Yoshimi Hayashi. Born in Japan in 1971, today, he is an installation and performance artist. As a teen, he returned to Japan to study ceramics and apprenticed with world-class ceramic sculptor Hiroshi Ikehata. He earned an MFA from The University of New Mexico and joined the
Art Department at MiraCosta College in 2001 to teach ceramics and sculpture. Today's
gift is from
Exquisite Corpse, a suite of eighteen lithographs by visiting artists at the
Tamarind Institute.
 |
| During his time at Tamarind in 2002, he created two editions, A Measure of You and Me and Offer You my Heaven in which he created emotive compositions of text, form, and color. |
