UNESCO exhibition World Humanities Conference

Thrilled that Please Do Touch has been accepted to feature at the World Humanities Conference this year!!

This exhibition co-organised by the UNESCO and a group of other global initiatives... more coming soon!

Working on an interactive art installation

Please Do Touch (Yaniv Janson's Art) from nimbus media.

These most recent works of Yaniv Janson address issues of inequality and the issue of housing. 

His work asks us to look at the how people feel about their living conditions and what kind of options are realistically available to all people to ensure that everyone has adequate housing. 

Yaniv’s art draws the viewer in through the use of vibrant colour and then while he has our attention, simultaneously addresses the social justice of inadequate housing and poverty.

Inspired....

 
You may have been to some special garden which is like this one - just as you walk towards the castle ahead of you then the beautiful garden that is to your left and right tells you that the building ahead of you has a beautiful princess like Sleeping Beauty. Pollution disrupts this peace...

Beautiful Garden with Flowers (Acrylic on canvas - 91cm X 61cm) exhibited in a virtual space using dumpr tool.

This painting was exhibited in the University of Waikato, Momento Gallery. It was inspired by a famous painting - A pathway in Claude Monet's garden. I just loved the combination of lines and colours leading up to the house.

Yesterday, today and tomorrow

Flowers can also tell the time...

Flowers can also tell the passing of time: yesterday, today and tomorrow. For each one, I love, long and hope... to see you again. Some people believe that the darker the flower, the more love there is and I think they are right. The lighter the purple is, the closer it is that you start loving someone. The darker the purple is, the more you carry on loving them up to 100% and the less you'll want to leave them because you cannot bear missing them. Yesterday I loved walking on my favorite beach in the whole world where the mountain kisses the sea and I can remember it not just tomorrow but forever - with you.

Acrylic on canvas (30" X 30" or 76cmX76cm) Submitted to "Mythography: An exploration of narrative" from the MANIFEST GALLERY , Cincinnati, Ohio. 

Watch the MANIFEST space - and their vision about the transformative power of creativity!

Lithography: Distance

Thank you Ms. Ingham for your help! This lithography was sold in Europe. It is about distances that separate people and the sadness around it.
