Knowledge of tools and materials is essential for artists. For those of us, Japanese, who work in Europe, it is really challenging how we end up wasting so much time trying to explain what we need just because we can’t remember the name of a certain necessary item. Taking this kind of experience as a basis, we gathered the names of things that seemed necessary, and made them into a book. We hope this book will be a companion for artists doing residencies, for both Japanese artists producing work in foreign countries, and foreign artists working in Japan, to assist you in communicating about your work in an unfamiliar place.
