Outline
At Span Art Gallery, we are holding the first solo exhibition by Atsuko Minato, "Atsuko Minato Animaru Exhibition-Tails Dream". Atsuko Minato creates "living things" that live between a little real and toys using the technique of teddy bears. The beauty of natural materials is brought out by hand-dyed color matching and switching, and the animals that are carefully sewn one by one give warmth, weight, hugging comfort, cuteness and fragility of toys when touched gently. The appearance of wearing a toy attracts many fans. This time, the lovely "living things" will gather at Span Art Gallery to create the world of "living things". In addition to exhibiting and selling works, we plan to sell booklets, postcards, and figures by modeling artist Moria. Please fully enjoy the world of Atsuko Minato.

MINATO Atsuko

Born in Chiba prefecture, he is a typical B-type person living in Tokyo. After working as an advertising agency and production, he is now a freelance illustrator and graphic designer. Since 2005, he has also been active as a teddy bear writer.

I met a teddy bear because I happened to pick up a work by an overseas artist at an exhibition I stopped by. When I was little, I had a friend of a bear who never let go, but when I became an adult, I wasn't good at stuffed animals. However, I was overwhelmed and impressed by the presence of the bear I saw there, and the hidden bear heart swelled. I started out because I liked teddy bears, but now I'm more likely to make animals other than bears. I am obsessed with the charm of creatures born from a single piece of mohair.
