SAKE' AMONG LIGHT PETALS - Temporary Museum for New Design April 12th- 17th

Tasting a sakè where usually stands an art gallery comes as a surprise for all visitors.
Even more surprising is discovering its all-Oriental poetry. A modern and evanescent Japanese bar is lit by the OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) designed by  Kaneka, which changes the way the light is projected by adding a new light source. In the project by Suzuno Koichi, of the Torafu studio, the lights float on the walls as delicate petals.
The scene projected for Kaneka interprets and seizes the magic sensation of the 'yozakura', a word meaning 'admiring the cherry blossoms during the night', a springtime habit of every Japanese. A delicate invitation to share this tradition in the gallery located right at the entrance of Superstudio Più (Temporary Museum for New Design, via Tortona 27).
