Event Overview

Live music, curated wines, and a chance to win exclusive prizes await!

This extraordinary event features a seamless, immersive journey through four distinct thematic rooms, each offering a unique artistic experience that masterfully blends familiar East Asian artistic inspirations with Western modernist techniques. Alongside delicate compositions and powerful mixed-media relief works, discover pieces inspired by the whimsical charm of Studio Ghibli and the expressive visual language of Japanese animation. Every element—from the art itself to the live string music and carefully curated wine selections—is thoughtfully designed to create moments of wonder, contemplation, and discovery as you explore the intersection of fantasy, industrial modernity, and imaginative storytelling.

3

The Sensory Realm - Ethereal Convergence

Continue through seamlessly connected spaces where texture and atmosphere intertwine with striking visual art. These multisensory layers envelop you in an environment that transcends traditional viewing, creating an unfolding journey that stirs memory, emotion, and imagination—an experience that is as much felt as it is seen.

4

The Reflection Lounge - Contemplative Close

Conclude your experience in a serene space designed for quiet reflection, where you can pause to absorb the journey and let its impressions settle.
