イベント体験談(長沢美保子 さま)

Japanese Artist Pop Up Shop 6  イベント参加体験談

6回目のPop-Upのイベントに初めてご参加いただいた長沢さまに、イベントに参加した感想をお伺いしました。

●自己紹介

仙台在住のジュエリーアーティスト ビーズ工房 Ever Green 長沢美保子です。
ジュエリーとの出会いですが、8年程前にビーズの魅力に引き込まれて制作を始め、
その後、複数のジュエリー制作技能資格(ジュエリークロッシェ教授資格等)を取得しました。ビーズアクセサリー、ジュエリークロッシェ作品のほか、幼少の頃に始めた折り紙の経験を生かした折り紙アクセサリーもメインに創作活動中です。現在は、仙台を拠点に百貨店・イベント等に出展し活動をしています。

●NY(海外)で活動することになったキッカケ

特に折り紙アクセサリーが「Japanese Artist Pop Up Shop」に合うのではという期待と、家族の協力もあり、今回ニューヨークでの出展になりました。

●イベントに参加してよかった事

イベントでは、折り紙アクセサリーへの反応が多く、また、直接お客様の声を聞くことができ、今後の創作活動の参考になりました。

●イベントに参加して大変だった事

ニューヨークで初出展だった為、備品の準備や英語表記にする為の準備等に時間がかかり、大変だったことを覚えてます。

●今後の活動について

これからは、仙台を拠点に日本全国を巡り、また、ニューヨークでも定期的にイベントに参加し、活動の幅を広げていきたいです。

●海外に今後展開したいと考えている人へのメッセージ

海外展開は、最初戸惑うことが多々ありますが、ニューヨークは個性を生かせる街です。街にあふれる数々のアートに目を向けることができます。

アーティスティックな街、ニューヨークへの進出にトライしてみてはいかがでしょうか。

Edo Kirico is a glass craft that has been handed down in Tokyo. Edo Kirico was fostered in the urban culture among the townspeople, and during the Meiji era (mid-19th century), the craft introduced not only Western equipment and instruments, but also their technique while preserving traditional techniques and has been passed down to the present time.

【FD STYLE (SANSAKU) 】

The SANSAKU is a cup created specifically for the enjoyment of sake. It comes in three different styles, designed to accentuate and amplify the aroma, texture, flavor, and aftertaste of sake. Because, sake can be enjoyed at a wide range of temperatures, we have carefully spun single sheets of stainless steel using our specially designed mold and spatula, creating a vessel that can control how heat is transmitted to the mouth. Everyone has their own sense of taste, and preferences can change according to mood, physical condition and the social environment. The SANSAKU lets us enjoy our sake at different temperatures and occasion-perhaps you will be pleasantly surprised by a new flavor experience in your usual sake.

イベント参加体験談(小松聡子さま)

体験談小松聡子さん

ニューヨークに在住でJapanese artist pop-up shopのイベントにご参加いただいたsatokomatsuの小松聡子さまにのご紹介と体験談をお話いただきました。


ジュエリーデザイナーの小松聡子です。

大阪生まれ大阪育ちですが、6年前に宝石製造卸の会社を退職、ジュエリーデザインのスキルアップのためにNYに来たことをきっかけに自分のブランドを立ち上げ、今はNYを拠点に活動しています。

イベントでは実際にお客様の声や、その方達の身につけている物を知ることができるので、そこから次に何を作ろうか、次はどんな見せ方にしようかとアイデアを得られます。

それまではアメリカではネットショップのみの販売だったので、最初は在庫の確保とディスプレイ等を揃えるのが大変でした。他のクリエイターマーケットに行って他の方のブースデザインを見たり、気になったディスプレイはどこで買ったのかと直接聞いたりもしました。

今後はもっといろんなイベントに参加して活動の幅を広げたいと思っています。

ニューヨークは刺激的な街です。そして何事も始めるのに遅すぎるなんてことはないよ、と背中を押してくれる街でもあります。もし、出てみたいけど言葉の壁が、とか何から手をつけたらいいのか、と迷っているならとりあえず飛び込んでみて下さい。その経験こそがアーティストの糧になります。
