Zachary Trebellas. Pen/Pen Keisu. Scanogram. 2015. This is one piece of several I’m working on that focus on the Japanese habits that have replaced my American ones. In this case replacing the habit of throwing a pen and pencil into my pocket or bag with owning a pencil case full of various materials. A friend of mine pointed out once that Japanese students, with their school uniforms and strict rules against makeup, piercings, and certain hair styles, express themselves in school with their pencil cases. I definitely found that to be true. —— This piece is part of the series I’m working on, Nippo Greco American, exploring my relationship with the three ethnic groups I in some way identify with.
