On 21 November 2019 Japan House London is set to welcome the mesmerising digital displays of multidisciplinary visual design studio, WOW. Coming to London for their first UK solo exhibition, WOW’s unique approach to digital arts is a must-see on the London arts calendar this winter.
About
Japan House presents two installations by WOW looking at both the urban future and timelessness of rural Japan.
WOW’s ‘Tokyo Light Odyssey’ installation presents a mind-bending 360-degree reimagining of Japan’s capital city by night, to herald 2020 and the year when the world looks to Tokyo for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, while 'POPPO' focuses on the folk art of Japan's countryside and allows visitors to carve their own Japanese kokeshi dolls, project their faces on to them and display them on the Gallery walls for all to see.
The exhibition is free to attend and is suitable for all ages.
