サンフランシスコ紀伊国屋書店の「しおり」をデザインするというプロジェクトを、S.I.R.のアーティスト4人で手がけ、先日印刷が出来上がって来たようです。私はもちろん書道で、上の写真では左からふたつめのものです。白地に、「きょうはほんをよもう。」と書きました。書店で本を購入すると、これがついてくるようです。仕事の休憩時間に、晴れた休日のカフェで、寝る前のベッドで、好きな小説を読みながら、このしおりを使って、ほっと一息。

Recent commission work: designing a bookmark for Kinokuniya Bookstore.  I provided a calligraphy art work for a Kinokuniya Bookstore SF’s bookmark (in the photo above, mine is the second one from the left).  Four artists including me from S.I.R. worked on this bookmark project: Noa- (painter), Keiko Moriyama (photographer), Junko Maegawa (graphic designer), and me as a Japanese calligrapher.  I wrote “Let’s read a book today.” in Japanese on a white background.  You can get these bookmarks at Kinokuniya Bookstore when you make purchases in the store.  During a break from work, on a holiday at a sunny cafe, or before you go to bed, let’s read books!  Hope this bookmark will be a help for your relaxing moment.
