SUMMARY:Exhibition:  CODE — a drawing like poetry like drawing
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents CODE — a drawing like poetry like drawing\, an exhibition of small works on paper by visual artist and poet Teo Yamamoto. The exhibition will open Saturday\, June 9\, 2018 and will remain on view through July 5\, 2018. An Opening Reception with poetry reading by the artist will be held on June 9 from 6 – 8 pm. \nThe types and combinations of ink and paper are a secret\, an alchemical code discovered through much labor and treasured by the artist for its synergistic luminescence. The subjects\, too\, suggest codes\, celestial constellations flickering incompletely into view\, half-decoded ideograms tuned in from some scrambled frequency broadcast perhaps by nature itself\, like the mysterious photons emitted by all DNA. Look closer and you’ll find that the suggested figures and structures themselves are built up out of smaller code-like patterns of similar shapes. Sometimes we sense a pattern without recognizing it. Sometimes one person’s pattern is another’s noise. What’s organic at one level may appear mechanistic up close. In Yamamoto’s work\, the familiar visual distinctions between the organic and inorganic\, and between the patterned and the chaotic break down. \nArtist Statement \nI’m a poet as well as a visual artist. Since I was little\, I began drawing pictures instinctively\, just as naturally as talking to myself. \nI am fascinated with “dots’ and the way dots connect to each other to become a “line.” Lines attract me even more. I am always impressed that the world\, as I see it\, is made up of lines. These lines\, straight or curved\, intersect\, merge and mix\, creating new forms\, morphing into geometric shaped objects. \nIn my mind’s eye these objects change their scale\, their distance and speed\, floating\, hovering\, then pass by\, disappear\, pop and freeze. They hold codes for me to decipher. \nAnimals\, plants\, stones\, clouds\, my love of the natural world all motivate me to make art. So\, too\, my awe of man-made marvels and creations like skyscrapers\, brick buildings\, stone churches\, common houses\, boats and roads inspire me immeasurably. \nI have been writing poems for a long time and started creating visual poetry in 2007. Through accumulated experience\, I discovered how to draw pictures using the same techniques and processes for writing poetry. I shift my focus inward to my mind\, and as I do\, objects become simplified; their meanings dissolve and float in space. Then\, slowly\, the freely structured poetic world is revealed. \nIn pockets\, I believe everyone holds a key that can open them to both see and feel my art. I wish that when people look at my drawings they can also enjoy a poetic experience. \nAbout Teo Yamamoto \nTeo Yamamoto was born in Japan and has been living in New York City since 1988. She has been producing and publishing a variety of art and has been involved as visual artist\, designer\, poet and writer with many projects based in New York\, Tokyo\, and Europe. \n“CODE – a drawing like poetry like drawing” is an on-going series that Yamamoto began creating in 2007 and exhibiting in 2011 and continues to the present. As the title suggests\, Yamamoto focuses on the secret of drawing pictures as if writing poetry. Exhibitions of the CODE series have been held in New York\, Paris and Tokyo. Yamamoto’s works of visual poetry and objet d’art have also been shown in various group shows. \nAs a poet\, Yamamoto has published several books of poetry\, including her bilingual Japanese and English collections An Ordinary Tomorrow and Funny Tail\, which also feature her exquisite drawings. She performs her readings with live music collaborations. \nTwo of her earlier books of poems\, Running God and Blue Elf Weed\, were published in Japan. She also produced a series of chapbooks\, including  CODE\, which was issued in conjunction with her first exhibition at CRS in 2011. The series of her visual poetry called “Breath” was published in the poetry magazine Gui. \nhttp://teoyamamoto.com/

SUMMARY:Meditative Concert Series:  Lunar Shower Celebration
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents an afternoon of music\, meditation and dance created by recording artist Chigusa Fukushima (zanmaikin bowls)\, CRS healer Miyoko Satoh (crystal singing bowls) and dancer and color artist Masae Cathy Satouchi. The program celebrates the arrival of the new moon and the midpoint of the year\, offering an opportunity to express gratitude for what has passed and to welcome all that is to come. \nThe otherworldly sounds of the singing bowls melt away stress and bring listeners into a state of deep relaxation and emotional and mental clarity\, allowing revitalizing inspiration to enter consciousness. Dance and visuals will enhance the effects and deepen the journey. Come remember who you are and enjoy the energy of your abundance! \nTickets are $30 through June 9 and $40 at the door and are available online\, by phone (212-677-8621) and at CRS. \nThis concert is part of an informal series of chamber concerts at CRS incorporating meditation as a means of deepening the connection between artists and audience. \nChigusa Fukushima started her career as a Tuner Therapist in 2007. In 2012 she discovered the Zanmaikin\, a unique metal percussion instrument made of iron and pure titanium created by hand by Mr. Tomoaki Kawakami\, a Japanese smithy based in Ishikawa prefecture\, Japan. Each bowl produces a distinct and beautiful tone. Since then she has been offering concerts and sound meditations to encourage inner peace\, guided by her study of A Course in Miracles. She has released four albums and toured internationally\, performing at many spiritual sites such as Stonehenge and Mt. Shasta.\nhttp://space-u.net/sw/ \nMiyoko Satoh is a Spiritual Healer. She was born and raised in Japan. In her childhood she awakened to her spiritual awareness of the world beyond. In 2001\, she began studying A Course in Miracles and meditation further developing her spiritual awareness at CRS. In 2004\, she began offering spiritual counseling and energy healing work. She also expresses her creativity in different ways such as dancing\, singing and playing Crystal Singing Bowls. She offers private healing sessions\, counseling for relationship\, career etc…..\, and sound healing with crystal singing bowls.\nhttp://miyokosspiritualgarden.com/home.html \nMasae Satouchi (Performing Artist\, Color analysis\, Kimono Dresser) has produced and directed shows unifying diverse styles of art\, fashion and dance through her own unique vision of color and beauty. Masae brings to every performance a style of dance in which her body movements are strictly in harmony with the music. She is also known as a preacher of Japanese authentic beauty that is revolutionizing the art of geisha for a new generation of women in the world.\nhttp://masaesatouchi.com

An Opening Reception with poetry reading by the artist will be held on June 9 from 6 – 8 pm. \nThe types and combinations of ink and paper are a secret\, an alchemical code discovered through much labor and treasured by the artist for its synergistic luminescence. The subjects\, too\, suggest codes\, celestial constellations flickering incompletely into view\, half-decoded ideograms tuned in from some scrambled frequency broadcast perhaps by nature itself\, like the mysterious photons emitted by all DNA. Look closer and you’ll find that the suggested figures and structures themselves are built up out of smaller code-like patterns of similar shapes. Sometimes we sense a pattern without recognizing it. Sometimes one person’s pattern is another’s noise. What’s organic at one level may appear mechanistic up close. In Yamamoto’s work\, the familiar visual distinctions between the organic and inorganic\, and between the patterned and the chaotic break down. \nArtist Statement \nI’m a poet as well as a visual artist. Since I was little\, I began drawing pictures instinctively\, just as naturally as talking to myself. \nI am fascinated with “dots’ and the way dots connect to each other to become a “line.” Lines attract me even more. I am always impressed that the world\, as I see it\, is made up of lines. These lines\, straight or curved\, intersect\, merge and mix\, creating new forms\, morphing into geometric shaped objects. \nIn my mind’s eye these objects change their scale\, their distance and speed\, floating\, hovering\, then pass by\, disappear\, pop and freeze. They hold codes for me to decipher. \nAnimals\, plants\, stones\, clouds\, my love of the natural world all motivate me to make art. So\, too\, my awe of man-made marvels and creations like skyscrapers\, brick buildings\, stone churches\, common houses\, boats and roads inspire me immeasurably. \nI have been writing poems for a long time and started creating visual poetry in 2007. Through accumulated experience\, I discovered how to draw pictures using the same techniques and processes for writing poetry. I shift my focus inward to my mind\, and as I do\, objects become simplified; their meanings dissolve and float in space. Then\, slowly\, the freely structured poetic world is revealed. \nIn pockets\, I believe everyone holds a key that can open them to both see and feel my art. I wish that when people look at my drawings they can also enjoy a poetic experience. \nAbout Teo Yamamoto \nTeo Yamamoto was born in Japan and has been living in New York City since 1988. She has been producing and publishing a variety of art and has been involved as visual artist\, designer\, poet and writer with many projects based in New York\, Tokyo\, and Europe. \n“CODE – a drawing like poetry like drawing” is an on-going series that Yamamoto began creating in 2007 and exhibiting in 2011 and continues to the present. As the title suggests\, Yamamoto focuses on the secret of drawing pictures as if writing poetry. Exhibitions of the CODE series have been held in New York\, Paris and Tokyo. Yamamoto’s works of visual poetry and objet d’art have also been shown in various group shows. \nAs a poet\, Yamamoto has published several books of poetry\, including her bilingual Japanese and English collections An Ordinary Tomorrow and Funny Tail\, which also feature her exquisite drawings. She performs her readings with live music collaborations. \nTwo of her earlier books of poems\, Running God and Blue Elf Weed\, were published in Japan. She also produced a series of chapbooks\, including  CODE\, which was issued in conjunction with her first exhibition at CRS in 2011. The series of her visual poetry called “Breath” was published in the poetry magazine Gui. \nhttp://teoyamamoto.com/
