Objectives of the Exhibition
This exhibition provides a platform for Pastel Nagomi Art instructors and students to showcase their artwork. We aim to inspire people of all ages to express their creativity through art. We believe that art is a powerful medium for storytelling, especially for those who struggle to express themselves through words. Our primary objective is to make this therapeutic art form accessible to as many people as possible, bringing them hope, joy, and peace.
Theme of our Exhibition
The theme of this exhibition is "Love Story." We encourage participants to express their deepest feelings of love and tell their stories through their artwork. The stories can be about romantic love, family, friends, pets, nature, faith, scenery, special moments, and even food. We encourage participants to use their inspirations to tell their stories, merging their inner world with their fingers.
