波瀾万丈な予感のする2010年の幕開けから、やっとブログをアップする時間を得て（つまりは風邪をひいたということなんですが）、告知に至りますSIRのアートショー。
Surreality in Realityの2010年、第一弾目は、自然の四要素３つ目の「土」”EARTH”。
新たなメンバーを迎えて、大地に根を張る大木のごとく成長しつつあるSIRですが、今年は５月で２周年を迎えるということもあり、パワーアップしていきたいと思っています。

テクスチャーの加わった渋いフライヤーデザインを手がけてくれたのはMieさん aka Sleepytiger & Junkoさん。今回はまた奮発してバニッシュのフィニッシュを加えて、お洒落な仕上がりです。
今Business Cardも製作中、果たしてイベント開催当日に間に合うかはどきどきなところですが。

会場で「土」という空間を感じてもらうべく、試行錯誤しながらミーティングを重ねて、着々と準備中です。
今回は展示期間が水曜日から土曜日まであり、土曜日の夜７時前までに来てくれた人には、７時からのイベントに無料で入れるという特典もあります。というわけで、会場ヘはお早めに。
ではみなさん、Space Galleryで会いましょう♥

Finally I was able to update my blog – it means that I caught a cold and can’t get out of the bed. My pillow and Kleenex are my best friends right now. Hopefully I’ll be able to go out and breathe some fresh air tomorrow.

So, here in San Francisco, Surreality In Reality crew’s first art show of this year is coming up on January 30th, 2010, entitled as “Four Elements vol.3 EARTH”. Four new members came on board, and we are ready to sail out and explore the rest of this long journey. I’d like to take SIR to the next level this year, since our 2nd year anniversary is coming up in May. I am glad to see how we as an art collective are growing like a big tree spreading its roots underground.

You’ll experience new SIR – don’t miss out!

Surreality in Reality Crew is cultivating the wilderness in pursuit of the third element among Four Elements of nature: Water, Fire, Earth and Wind. The fruits of the fire and water have formed, ripened and returned to soil, as known as Earth, providing ideal nutrient base and minerals. Fallen leaves and fruits of autumn fertilize the earth, generating lives on this planet. This series of art exhibitions and live performances will be presented by Japanese local talents, known as S.I.R., showcasing their artistic interpretation of “EARTH” in various media.
