Flower instalation at UNIQLO 5th avenue flagship.

"Kabuki" is one of the most traditional performance in Japan. All actors are men in gorgeous kimono costumes with metaphorical embroiderments that is designed specifically for the performance.

UNIQLO collaborated with SHOCHIKU, one of Kabuki house to produce artsy merchandise for spring campaign. I created flower installation on the table top inside of the campaign booth. My good friend from high school, who currently works as set artist at SHOCHIKU Kabuki consulted me, and I came up the modern arrangement.

NYのユニクロのフラッグシップストアでお花のデコレーションをしました。

初めはプロデューサーの要望に応え、生け花のスタイルを取り入れるつもりだったのですが、場所のスケールを考え少し華やかに納めました。

私の学生時代の友人が松竹歌舞伎座の舞台美術を務めていることもあり彼のアドバイスを元に、伝統とユニクロのモダンな感覚を両方取り入れたアレンジメントに仕上がりました。
