AG Gallery is pleased to announce opening of a new exhibition featuring Miki Katagiri ’s “Fragments of Memory”. Please join us for the opening reception and meet the artist on Saturday, October 5, 5~7PM.

MIKI KATAGIRI is a Japanese artist and milliner based in Brooklyn, New York City. A native New Yorker since 1989, Katagiri has enjoyed 35 years designing her poetically charged topical hat sculptures. Katagiri’s work addresses serious matters of the heart, linking her love of environment, nature, politics, and the universe. Katagiri’s topical hat sculptures have been featured in New York and Japan in galleries and private collections. Having worked closely with the renowned designer, Patricia Underwood, Katagiri teaches millinery classes at Parsons, The New School for Design, and her Williamsburg studio. Ms. Katagiri also creates unique handmade ready-to-wear and custom orders.

Message From Artist
I believe there are spiral shapes all around us. The clockwise and the counter clockwise. When the spirals meet, we can create great energy. If we can connect to the universe, we can know the future. That’s because our DNA remembers everything since the universe began. But we can also just enjoy this moment and be happy! October 17th is my 35th year anniversary of being in NY. I thank all my friends and everyone I know for helping me to have a joyful life in NY.

This exhibition is curated by AG Gallery Director. For any inquiries, please contact natsumi@aboutglamour.net
