Abbies
Page 1 2 3 4 5
Abbie is a generalized nickname for Iwasaki's abstract drawings, which stems from the first syllable of the word ab-stract. Color, shape, space, value, transparency and composition are the main elements which are concerned in the works. The individual names of Abbies are consist of the fragments of Japanese, English, other languages, and sounds based on the themes and elements in them. The combination of those languages makes the titles to be vague and uncertain to the viewers, for them to explore their own visions, while it is a clear reminder of what they mean for Iwasaki.
