This post is long overdue. But since these guys are opening a show this Thursday, let’s pretend my tardiness was planned. I’d love to introduce two talented designers calling our grey city home. Andrew and Natsuko met while studying graphic design at Portland State University and have a show for you. It’s awesome, they let me squeak in for a sneak peek. Here are the show details:

The Littman Gallery (1825 SW Broadway, Portland) hosts Andrew Indrisie and Natsuko Pursell in their show titled “In Search of This World” at 5pm, Thursday. That’s tomorrow! Directly from Andrew + Natsuko:

A multimedia exhibition of new work…which explores curiosities of the moments, places, memories and emotions that we experience in our daily lives.

These two have stellar, solid work, I mean really they are awesome together. All of the images in the show are found from Portland State University archives, re-appropriated, sliced, drawn-on, layered, and framed. Other objects are strategically placed throughout the expanse of the gallery which draw viewers in to inspect tiny neon details, and perhaps a man in a space suit, 1″ tall. This show will not disappoint. It’s like looking into a gem, and inside are creatures, staring back at you. Excellent work guys.

What I’m really excited to talk about though is Andrew + Natsuko’s work. Well actually less talking and more sharing, it’s about time more people in Portland knew about these two. We’re happy to have them here, although the day after their show they will be heading to Japan, and they’ve been flirting with opening a studio in Paris. What they don’t realize is no one wants them to leave Portland. So, consider staying guys?

Check out the caliber:

Andrew + Natsuko have their work here. Don’t forget to go to their show opening this Thursday, reception is 5-7pm at the Littman Gallery at PSU.
