Hello Yukiyo,
Nice to meet you, wonderful work.

Dear Yukiyo,
I was introduced to your work at the Nikkei Legacy Center during your exhibition and am looking forward to the installation at the Glyph Gallery this month. I’m a poet and have published seven collections of haiku, tanka, and haibun. My husband and I lived in Kyoto for twelve years and we’re involved in the Portland Japanese Garden and the Nikkei Legacy Center. A number of years ago, I also had an exhibition there of poems and quilts on the internment camps. Please visit my website to learn more about my creative work. I would love to meet you and share stories about our projects.
Your work at Milepost5 is beautiful.
I live in the Loft building there.
Perhaps we can meet sometime.
Would it be possible to visit your studio?
Very honored to see this lovely work.

Wow, I hope to make it to the radio room soon. I only saw your one painting at Yute’s office. You’re installations are brilliant! Formations are also amazing and I want to see closer.
I saw your “Little Boy” piece among a lot of “nice” weavings at the 2015 Lake Oswego Art Festival. So subversive and great. Like dropping a bomb in the middle of suburban sleepwalkers.
