Introduction:
Eiji Takeda, who usually draws original pieces inspired by the design of magazine advertisements, portrays his everyday life in Indian ink on Japanese paper once a week.“The topic is limited to his ordinary days. The close theme somehow fascinates me,” says Koji Ono, the director of DIAMOND HEADS INC. As the guest curator of this show, Ono focuses on the diary-like pieces of Takeda and reveals his private side for the first time.
