BEAUTIFUL BIZARRE ARTIST DIRECTORY | We are excited to welcome artist @sandra_yagi ⭐ Sandra Yagi was raised in suburban Denver Colorado, USA and from an early age she loved science especially biology and drawing. Her parents instilled in her an ethic of getting a “useful” education because of their concern for monetary and domestic stability a result of their internment with other Japanese-Americans during WWII and their desire for their children to assimilate. As a result, Sandra’s studies focused on business, she obtained a Master's in Business Administration, and worked in the corporate world for 27 years at major financial institutions. However, due to the pent-up need to create, she took up drawing and painting again at age 32, while still working in finance. Sandra left corporate life behind in 2008 and became a full-time artist. With a viewpoint rooted in logic and science, and a curiosity for the macabre, she explores themes such as mythology, mortality, human experience and our impact on the natural world.

CURATED BY PRISCILLA OTANI  Foxes appear in folklore all over the world:  in the Americas, Asia and Europe. In folk tales, they are consistently portrayed as anthropomorphic creatures possessing human-like characteristics of tricksters, shapeshifters, vengeful seductresses, spell-casters, or messengers from the gods. They appear benevolent, but their benign demeanor is a disguise for their malevolence. Bewitched is an exhibition by seven Bay Area artists who have personal affinities for the kitsune, or the fox and have created works of art that represent various manifestations of this creature. Whether freaky or kawaii, these foxes will no doubt leave a lasting impression of their magical power on the viewer.  taken in Arc Studios & Gallery by @sandra_yagi
