Message from Pinky Ring (added Jan.22):

The second and third photos were taken on the day before the opening after sonsen-nim installed the works.
That is why it is so quiet^^

Because I wanted to capture the atmosphere of the venue, I took these photos when the place was empty, with the permission of sonsen-nim.
(taking of photos is prohibited during the actual exhibit).

His lecture attracted a large crowd of 550 attendants, and the exhibit area was full of many visitors as well. From time to time, sonsen-nim gave detailed explanations of each of his works.

I am a little late leaving my thanks to you and pinky ring-san. Sorry, I was "distracted" by Won-nim.

I hope the deserted exhibition hall and quiet front desk do not mean that attendance was low.

According to Pinky Ring, sonsen-nim's lecture attracted approximately 550 people - the highest attendance in the history of the Center in Osaka^^

Thank you flowerbossa and Pinky Ring for the update. I was wondering the same thing gosijo brought up the other day, it’s good to know the attendance was actually very good.

Hello Hyds,

Pinky Ring-san is happy to share these photos with you.

I admire how sonsen-nim is always searching for new ways of expression thru urushi (japan). He says he still has so many things he wants to do!

love,
flowerbossa
