On the way to work I saw a sign said "a bazaar for Nepal"
so I made a detour to a garage immediately found these shoes.
They are all my size and costed 1$ each!
I can't stop loving my neighborhood.
It has a shitamachi feeling but with a bit of elegance and intelligence
I can see stone monuments of great writers  lived in this neighborhood everywhere
I should start reading their books again
and enjoy imagining what about Bunkyo ward inspired them...
Also, I like how full of cute local cats walking around and chilling out under the sun.

I'm testing different techniques  of Japanese sweets for an exhibition in Kyoto this summer. 

This sweets is called 祥雪 - signs of snow 

An improvisation of soup with things in my fridge. This moss ball with Boke flower was given by Seico and Rieko for my birthday. It's blooming continuously from last week. 

I watched a film called "Woman born twice" directed by Yuzo Kawashima created in 1961. All the kimono that they wear in the film were breathtakingly beautiful. Each time I watch old Japanese films, I learn how Japanese woman were elegant in terms of  the way they speak, little gestures in daily life and how they treat man! 

It's been a while since I updated my blog... So many things happened but another spring has just arrived here in Tokyo!

I went to the 21st century museum in Kanazawa to experience James Turrell's gas works after 6 years. It was still incredible and breathtaking experience... They told me that I'm so lucky to experience it twice in my life, as it had not been shown to the audience for last 6 years.

I also saw a show by Peter FISCHLI（1952-）/ David WEISS（1946-）

super playful and made me giggle all the time. Highly recommended!

Playtime

We watched playtime by Jacques Tati at my place projecting on the white curtain.

It was one of the best films I have ever seen...  

Beauty of composition, camera work, color, architecture, fashion, humor and subtle story telling.
