“Poetry shop POETNIK” exhibition held at B GALLERY
2016.11.03
For the first time, B GALLERY will hold an exhibition of POETNIK, a project started in 2016 by poet and photographer Yoshinori Heguchi and designer Atsushi Ichino.
POETNIK proposes that we enjoy poetry in our lives and live together by translating Yoshinori Heguchi's words into poems, recitations, and objects around us. POETNIK 's unique relationship between poetry and objects, which goes beyond expressions such as poetry and recitation, will create a new way of interacting with words, and will help you feel poetry more familiar.
``Poetry shop POETNIK'' will exhibit and sell mainly daily necessities and three-dimensional works with poems printed on them. Through this exhibition, you will be able to experience the charm of "words" from various angles such as poetry and reading. Please look forward to it.
