Zachar and Kenichi Yamaguchi at 35th ave Skateshop

So something I really love is how kids are getting exposed to art in some of the most unlikely places. A perfect example of this is the artwall at 35th North, a skateshop at the corner of 11th and Pike. They have been having shows of some of Seattles best Urban/Street artists over the past couple of years not only giving good exposure to the artists but helping educate a community that pretty much never goes to galleries or museums unless it's to skate the ledges there. The show they have up now is a Two man show with Zach Rockstead and Kenichi Yamaguchi. Zach is a notorious street artist that loves to crush but the boy has good skills that set him apart from the usual scratch tag mentality.





Kenichi Yamaguchi is a trained industrial designer who has been making a name for himself for his Functional sculpture work but has recently been doing a good bit of design and painting. This series of paintings are pretty in sync with his design sensibilities and his love for vintage Nikes.
