This online program offers 60 minutes of focused, dedicated time directly with Ephemere founder Anne Murayama. Serving as an accessible bridge into Ephemere's learning pathways, this standalone session is designed for artists who are not yet ready for a multi-month mentorship, those undecided about which format best fits their work, or anyone needing immediate answers on a specific challenge. With no long-term financial or production commitments, this private conversation creates a supportive, candid space to gain clarity, unblock creative paralysis, and identify your next steps.
Whether you need a quick curatorial gut check on a selection of images, guidance on structuring your first publication, or practical advice on navigating the Tokyo gallery and publishing ecosystem based on Anne’s background of over ten years as an independent curator and publisher, the hour is entirely yours. There is no rigid syllabus; Anne tailors her analysis directly to the portfolio materials, project statements, and questions submitted prior to your session. It functions equally well as a project diagnostic, an industry advisory, or a preliminary check-in before committing to a longer program.
Sessions are open to artists worldwide at any experience level, conducted via Google Meet, and scheduled according to Japan Standard Time (JST). Consultations are hosted exclusively on Wednesdays, allowing Anne to prepare thorough notes for each participant. To book a session, artists select their preferred time window and propose three Wednesday dates at least one week in advance. Following direct checkout and registration form submission, an official calendar invitation is issued with your confirmed date and video link, followed by a written summary of key action points after the call.
