■Moving my studio from NSW to VIC
□NSW州からVIC州へ工房をお引越し

Keiko Matsui Studio MontsalvatI never thought that I would move to Melbourne although I always loved Melbourne, one of the most livable cities in the world.

After many sleepless nights and tears from sorting and packing my cluttered studio in Umina Beach NSW, I managed to move my studio to Montsalvat in Eltham VIC, which is approximately 35 min drive from CBD in Melbourne.

Montsalvat is the an oldest artist colony in Australia, established by Justus Jörgensen in 1934. It is home to over a dozen buildings, houses and halls set amongst richly established gardens on 48,562 m2 (12 acres) of land.

My studio is located right behind the Barn Gallery, opposite the fountain of bronze baby. I am extremely pleased that I became part of this creative artists community and very excited to continue my art practice from 2020.

まさか世界で最も住みやすい街に何度も選ばれたメルボルンに工房を構えるとは、夢にも思っていませんでした。

ユマイナビーチの工房の魔のパッキングの日々を経て、何とかメルボルンに引越しすることができました。工房は、街中から35分程北東にあるエルサムという場所のモンサルヴァトという所です。

モンサルヴァトはオーストラリアで最も古いアーティスト達のコミュニティーで、1934年にジャスタス・ジョーゲンセン氏が設立しました。12エーカーの広い土地には、多くのヨーロピアン建築と家々、アーティスト達の工房、そして美しく手入れされた庭が広がっています。

私の工房はBarm Galleryの直ぐ後ろの、ブロンズの赤ちゃんの泉の真向かいにあります。この様な歴史ある場所に工房を構えることができたのは、非常に幸運な事でまるで夢の様です。これから、このクリエイティブな環境で制作していけることに心を躍らせています。

I will be opening my studio to the public once I have settled. If you need to visit me, please contact me to info@keikomatsui.com.au

少し落ち着きましたら、工房を一般公開しようと思っております。もし、ご旅行等時間が限られた方で、どうしても工房に来たいというお客様はEメール(info@keikomatsui.com.au ) にてご連絡ください。
