YOKAI TOUR

Toshihiko Ikeda|Hajime Emoto|Tetsui Oshima|Michiyo Kamei|Koei Nishida| Nobuo Magome

“Yokai” describes an extraordinary phenomenon or nasty monster which cannot be understood by human beings.
It is feared because it frightens people, runs amok and causes disasters. Sometimes, “Yokai” is considered to be God’s double, neither good nor bad, and is passed down from generation to generation, mentioned in folklore, or appears in comics.
It’s a familiar symbol of summer which is well-known to Japanese people.
Please enjoy the works on display which reveal this mysterious entity normally invisible to human eyes.

Bubbles

Bar A Van Tateru Yoshino (25F)

I pictured a fleeting image of a woman like fine bubbles which burst in the air.
In these bubbles which cool the heat of summer, I combined aromatic fragrances.
“Bubbles” from the Edo Period is a summer poem also found in Kabuki or Joryori.
Please savor the fragrance of the bubbles as they burst, in this refreshing cocktail.

[Aromatic bubbles]
The fragrance of spicy cloves and refreshing rosemary, a summer day which you have forgotten is revived;
a female figure, wearing the elegant fragrance of neroli and citrus, is awakened like a fleeting bubble in one`s memory,
while frankincense calms the mind, the blue of yarrow protects the soul, and colors deepen the background.
For a magic moment, please enjoy the aroma when the bubbles burst,
a refreshing world of cocktails that invite a cool breeze to blow in the mind.
