Common Flowers at the Interferenze Seed Tokyo 2010 Festival June 25th, 2010

‘Common Flowers – Flower Commons’ will be shown at the Interferenze Seed Tokyo 2010 Festival at VACANT in Harajuku, Tokyo on June 25th & 26th. Yes, it’s a small festival, but a very nice one.

We are very happy to be amongst other artists and friends like Hajime Narukawa, Akihiro Kubota, Takahiro Yamaguchi, Kazuhiro Jo, Tomotaro Kaneko and Natalija Robovic+Toru Fujita.

Opening times are 12h – 21h, both Saturday and Sunday from 18h onwards are live music performance. Should be good.

We should be there most of the time presenting our tissue-cultured carnations and roses. (Let’s see what the heat does to the tissue-cultures).

Full report to follow.
