A5 Plain Notebook “Forest Byoubu” by Atsushi Kitagawara – Soft Cover in Straw Paper.

There is a moment when a creative idea meets the landscape.
A gesture, a line, a material picked up from the ground.
This is how the works of Arte Sella are born: slowly, by listening to the forest, following an artistic path that intertwines with the rhythms of nature.
These notebooks preserve that trace.

The straw paper cover features the artist’s original sketch, while the first colored page tells the story of the completed work and the journey that brought it to life.
Inside, the light recycled paper offers a blank space to be filled with thoughts, projects, and insights.

Not just a notebook, but a fragment of a living artistic experience.
Take it with you: let nature continue to inspire your path.

FOREST BYOUBU – Atsushi Kitagawara, 2014
With Forest Byoubu, Atsushi Kitagawara weaves the precision of artifice with the spontaneity of nature.
The work appears like a folding screen suspended between earth and sky, where solid forms give way to emptiness, light, and the breath of the forest.
In this interplay of joinery and silence lies a subtle beauty: that of welcome, of waiting, of possibility.

It is an invitation to observe with gentleness, to imagine nature not only as a backdrop but as a living part of the artwork—and perhaps, as the invisible guardian of our lightest dreams.
