        Sugoi! – Craft Treasures

        by Barbara Luel-Pecheur

        “What struck me the most, from my first trip to Japan, are the everyday objects. They are so different from the ones we can find home! They can be found everywhere: in the street, in restaurants, in train stations or stores ... And it is sometimes hard to understand what they are immediately. Some of them are made with love and after hours of work, by passionate and meticulous craftsmen.  With their amazing shapes, it is not always obvious to know what they can be used for. It is necessary to be interested more closely to Japanese culture to guess. They are like miniature monuments. Fascinated as I was, I wanted to collect them in my sketchbook. So, I brought them home with me.” For all the Far East lovers, the Japanese temples in Kyoto, the old traditional sliding-walled houses or museums Prints (ukiyo-e) are awesome places. But surprisingly what stood out the most the author of this book are everyday objects. During her numerous trips to Japan, Barbara Luel has gleaned all kinds of objects: for cooking, painting of her notebooks, decorations or to put on the table. This book presents around 80 handicrafts objects according to their use and their materials, all watercolor painted by Barbara. It evokes the different stages of the journeys and the region of origin of these objects across the main islands of the archipelago (Honshu, Kyushu, Shikoku). The author, urban-sketcher and responsible for the movement in Brussels, gives precious "tips" to all her readers, who would like to embark on travelogue.

        Bali

        by Laura Roncallo - Illustrator: Defe (Alessio Defendini)

        In this high format travel diary, Defe invites readers to an artistic trip to Bali. Far from the beaten tracks, Defe goes into the details. His work as a plastic artist and illustrator gets closer to a Séraphine de Senlis or to an artist from Vuitton’s Travel Book collection. Going to Bali is a dream for many of us but the other side of the coin lies in the difficulties of waste management. The author Laura Roncallo particularly singles out to the plastic and discharges at sea. She puts herself in the shoes of a white monkey (mythical character) and in the last part of the book, stigmatizes those responsible for this ecological tragedy. Defe represents with a vivid color palette and in his own, very recognizable style the lush jungle and wild animals. His talent as a naturalist artist makes this work exceptional.
