“The Japanese Eye” exhibition

The Japanese Eye

The Japanese have been cultivating sophisticated “sense of beauty” throughout its history. It meant cutting out scenes of daily life and watching it with fresh perspective; which gave birth to the little joys of discoveries in their everyday routine. However, rapid globalism and modernization have allowed these preciously raised senses sink into oblivion.

 

matohu have been presenting collections of clothes titled “Japanese Eye”; a total of 17 chapters in 8 years. The harmony of its modernity in design and traditional sense of beauty have collected high appraisal not only in the fashion industry, but throughout the world.

 

This exhibition shows an art installation of different Japanese aesthetics combined into a form of “Japanese Garden”, and pieces of clothing shaping its idea.
Please come and enjoy finding hints of discovery and abundance in your everyday life.
