Shop handcrafted works from small businesses! Meet Nora Akino and see her printmaking and graphics at the Mammoth Lakes Open Air Arts and Crafts Fair on July 29, 30 & 31 from 10:00 am – 5:00pm. “Born in Japan to a family of artists, I lived as a child in Japan, India, Nepal, Mexico, Canada, and the Unites States. I have been creating art from a young age and studied drawing and painting in college with Nathan Oliveira, among others. My work arises from a feeling I often have when encountering a vista of exceptional beauty: a longing to touch what is far away and mysterious, that is perhaps universal. The images are evocations of place, refracted through my senses and cultural and personal affinities – in particular, the recognition of a boundless presence that permeates the natural world. Longing for the far away and mysterious is really a longing to learn and connect: human impulses that, for me, are the essence of the creative process.” ~ Nora Akino Visit Mammoth Lakes Open Air Arts and Crafts Fair, get to know the artists and learn the stories behind each piece they make.
