【Review: Japanese Only】ARToVILLA「作家のB面」Vol.22

What have been the artists’ influences in creating their work? By delving into the B-sides of the artists, we may be able to understand and love their work even more deeply. In the series ‘The B-Sides of the Artists’, the artists have designated a favourite place to talk in depth about a theme from the people, studies and entertainment they love.

The artists’ unit Ken Yonetani + Julia appear this time. We spoke to the pair, who live in a village about an hour’s drive from the centre of Kyoto, about the ‘organic farming’ they do alongside their creative work.
