Autorenporträt
Mayumi Nakagaki is the creator behind Enchanted Tones Publishing Co., where she has orchestrated a global symphony of artists dedicated to the fusion of art and literature. Her literary oeuvre is a testament to her profound engagement with Asian culture and art, marking her as a conduit through which the beauty and complexity of Eastern traditions are made accessible to the world. "Hana Kotoba, the Meaning of Flowers" and "Tokyo Ink - The Art of Irezumi Tattoos" and The Rise and Fall of the Samurai are great examples of this fusion. A particular highlight of her career is a charming collection of Haikus for Children, brought to life with the enchanting illustrations by Satoshi Watanabe. Mayumi's work, deeply rooted in Zen Buddhist teachings from Japan, China, and South Korea, transcends geographical boundaries, resonating with audiences across North America and Europe. Her artistic and literary contributions are showcased not only in publications from Enchanted Tones but also in "Art Movements of the 20th Century," a collaborative release by the Gargoyle Collective and Rampages Publishing. "Mayumi Nakagaki's works are a bridge between worlds. Few authors have been capable of translating the East to the West with this level of beauty and artistry", states Ziggy Quinete, creator of Gargoyle Collective and co-author of several of Mayumi's previous works.
