Sanpo

A City Sketchbook
Publisher Akinomé
COLLECTION Petits carnets
Category Art
Keywords City - Journey - Painting
The words and colors of a traveling painter. This collection explores unique and original aspects of a special part of the world through an artist's eyes.

In Japanese, sanpo means "walk." Delphine Priollaud-Stoclet adores Asian streets, especially drawing them. With her painter's eye and poet's gaze, she temps readers to step outside. "My sketches capture fleeting moments on sensitive paper. To fix my chance encounters with other people's stories in my memory. Wherever my walks take me: what I love, and also what I abhor." Sanpo City is like an album of Asian street portraits taken on the fly. Countries visited in this book include China, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, and Japan.
