Japanese illustrator Atsuko Ishii (°1979, Osaka) lives and works in Paris, where she records daily life in her colourful and handprinted etchings. Her technique is very traditional but precise and underlines the poetic universe she creates with delicately drawn portraits, animals, objects and words. Ishii’s first solo show in Belgium shows almost 200 small and large artworks that are presented playfully in the sneaker boutique, and sold at incredibly low prices. Take them all home!
