"The silence of Asia would be the perfect setting for sincere self-study and self-expression.  Knowing this Anthony Emmolo moved to Taipei, Taiwan with an aim to remain in Asia for 10 years.  He was 24 years old and had just graduated from the School of Visual Arts in New York City.  Eleven years, and many life changing experiences later, he returned to America.  During the time in Asia he visited many countries, walking everywhere with his sketchbooks.  Writing notes and drawing pictures helped to open his mind to a world of different sites, sounds and smells that were uniquely Chinese and Japanese.  "An object loses significance when it is displayed as a part of a large group.  In a Zen temple a Japanese monk will display one piece of pottery on a shelf that could hold many.  In this way he reveals it, celebrating its color, texture, perfections and imperfections."
