Flowers, vessels and space, brought together as one.
Whether choosing a single flower, pairing flowers with a vessel or shaping an entire space with them, we consider not only the flowers themselves but also where they are placed and how they relate to their surroundings. Through these relationships, we aim to create new scenes within everyday life.
Our renovated machiya in Shinmachi-Takatsuji brings together a flower shop and a gallery. Alongside a selection of vessels and artworks, we will host an ongoing programme of exhibitions by artists.
EXHIBITION
Works by Ichiro Tsuruta
To mark our opening, we will present works by Ichiro Tsuruta, a painter known for his distinctive portraits of women.
His paintings, our flowers and the machiya itself bring different histories and backgrounds together in one space.
FOOD & DRINK
We will provide food and drinks at the reception, so you can take your time enjoying the space and the works on display.
