Work produced for "Art in Yujuku 2016", Minakami (Japan).



With intention to create a cozy and friendly community center for local residents and visitors, the shop owner Kimiko Nishiyama, her’s neighbors, the Japanese artist Mayumi Arai and me collectively produced this art project. The interior design focused in showing the antique objects collected by Nishiyama and contemporary artworks.
