We are preparing for Hiroshi Senju exhibition, to commemorate the 350th anniversary of Mitsukoshi. I am constantly changing the height and the position of the work and the scroll.
Her Imperial Highness Princess Hisako of Takamado was seen on the viewing. She was very interested and stayed in the gallery for a long time.
I am having discussions with Chikuunsai Tanabe about a project, to be held during Expo 2025, Osaka, Kansai, Japan. The project will also come to Tokyo. Chikuunsai Tanabe is the young artist who I am most interested in.
Researchers from the People's Republic of China visited the venue. We talked about the historical roots of hanging scrolls and Japanese paintings, and there was a lively discussion about how we should further promote cultural exchanges between Japan and China.
I came to Furusato Elementary School in Okutama. Again, we worked with Japanese mulberry paper. I am always impressed with children's imaginations, far exceed my expectation.
