from journeys and from home

旅から、家から... exhibition of selected sketchbooks and paintings by Davisi Boontharm

at Shinkenchiku-sha Aoyama House, 21-26 February 2025

"my everyday objects" and "street with no name" in one corner of the exhibition ...from journeys and from home.

The opening of Davisi's exhibition was on February 22nd at 16:00.

For over a decade, Davisi has been sketching and painting in orihon format sketchbooks. Beginning with a basic carnet de voyage, she has cultivated her passion for this format and conducted numerous experiments on different themes. Her subjects include everyday life and specific memories tied to places. She has captured street scenes and façades from places where she lives and the places of which she has a fond memory. Her sketches not only depict reality, but also encapsulate the atmosphere - and something beyond it. Her sketchbooks are like an autobiography that visually narrates her journeys, her home and her life.

The setup and the opneing of the exhibition very well thanks to the great team from co+labo Sano, Keio University.

The special thanks go to Sano Satoshi, Sotaro Miyatake, and Larissa Shinohara Tami, who brought great support and positive energy.

Miyatake-san helped design the paper shelves specifically for the orihon, which used very simple techniques to install without damaging the wall; a really creative invention.

Larissa and her magic network brought the special task force of international students in Tokyo to lend a hand for the setup. Big thanks to Jessica Ilunga, Jae Jin Kim, Jun Onuki, Leticia Misaki Matsuda, Matteo Lucanto, and Tim Hornung for their hard work.

co+re would like to thank all the guests and visitors who came to support. The display will be on until 26th February.
