."JOURNAL STANDARD Omotesando." will be the stage for a series of Okinawan-themed events.
The name of the exhibition is "Okinawan Third Wave. Focusing on the three pottery studios (Kobo Jutsuru, Shitobo, and Muro Kiln) that produce Okinawan pottery called "Yachimun", a large number of valuable vessels were arranged. It is said that it is a rare opportunity to see pottery made by these three workshops in one place, even in Okinawa.
Also available will be workwear by "J.S. Homestead," specially made with Ryukyu indigo. The unique deep blue color and the enjoyment of the aging process are unique to this dyeing method.
In addition, five brands of products from "APARTMENT OKINAWA," a project team of creators active in Okinawa, will be on display. Look out for the original T-shirts and bandanas created for the event.
On June 24 (Sat.) and 25 (Sun.), three potters from Okinawa will also be at the event, so why not experience new Okinawan creations without leaving Tokyo?
