2018 · Digital

Dimensions (33.8 x 33.97 cm)

In ‘Drawings of Nagoya’, the repetition of geometric form in the concrete and wood architecture, paired with nostalgic, 90s-bubble-esque clean pastels, reveal the charm and comfort of Japan’s 3rd-largest city. “Rose Court Hotel” is located in central Nagoya. This small house is nestled right behind a big modern hotel. A tiny attic window and aged tree contrast with the postwar concrete buildings but refuse to be intimidated. Rest your eyes and let your imagination wander in this soft slice of citypop.

About James Stewart

I am from the US and I lived in Nagoya, Japan for over 12 years. In that time I purified my own drawings through the thick filter of Japan. It changes you, in good ways and bittersweet ways. I learned tattooing. I followed the flow of Art Nouveau upriver until I found the source.
