"Pearl Experience-Pearl Salon Ise-Shima Nouveau Enjoying Pearl in 2017 faster than anyone" was held on Tuesday, November 28, 2017 from 19:00 to 21:00. In Ise-Shima, it seems that full-scale pearl collection will begin in December. As a project to enjoy the baby pearl of Ise-Shima, which exceeds 90% nationwide market share, "First Pearl Course" (Pearl Senior Advisor Takashi Atsumi), which teaches the history of pearls and how pearls can be made in an easy-to-understand manner. There was a recruitment of 30 people for participation fee of 1,000 yen (material fee) set course of "baby pearl removal experience". This time, I was also doing piercing processing for a metal fittings stand. Such projects are very popular, so they will be closed on a first-come, first-served basis.

　

I participated in the lecture held last time and carefully taught me how to identify good pearls and the types of pearl shells (such as akoya shells). In fact, pearl necklaces and shells were able to touch their hands.　The first experience of extracting pearls from akoya shell was very impressive. In order for pearls to grow into better pearls, I was able to know that there are many people who work daily with high aquaculture techniques, as well as the power of nature.

By taking the course, I was further impressed by the mystery and beauty of pearls, and I wanted to value the pearls of Ise-Shima, which is proud of the world as a jewel that women admire. Such a project is held several times a year, so be sure to take out your pearl from the pearl shell. By the way, you can get the pearl taken out of the shell, which is important. One day, I would like to process it into a pendant and wear it. The next one was Silver Pearl. The attraction of this experience is that you can enjoy the thrilling feeling that you may encounter any pearls.

　

I was sorry that I couldn't participate this time, but I would like to apply early next time. To experience the splendor of encountering the brilliance of pearl taken out by yourself!

　

"Eenaase no Mon VOL.3-Let's make your own roots to learn from the skills of craftsmen! ～

Netsuki is a sculpture art using Asama Tsuge-a small sculpture of about 3 to 4 cm, and was used in the Edo period as a fastener with a basket and a cigarette holder on a belt. Asama Yang Yang Yang, which is used in Isene, has a dense and hard tissue and is said to be a wooden gem. I experienced the making of roots while having Ise's root craftsman Tadamine Nakagawa teach me the skills of craftsmen.

　

At the exhibition corner, you can see valuable roots and books.

　

I applied on the spot and experienced making rooting.

Professor Tadamine Nakagawa

　

All the participants have a chisel after a long absence since a junior high school drawing class. First of all, Dr. Nakagawa taught me how to hold the correct chisel, wrote the frame shape with a pencil, and started sculpture work using it as a clue. All the participants are serious. Asama Yang Yang is soft wood, so it was cut in no time. After deciding the shape by rough cutting, I cut it smoothly with a finer sword, but it was quite difficult. Thanks to the teacher's rework many times, I was able to make wonderful works even in my first experience.

It took me for almost an hour to work, but when polished with sandpaper, it became glossy and it was finished like amber. I was delighted to be able to create an original rooting that can also be used as a strap or key ring.

　

I went home and put on a chain and made it a necklace. Dr. Nakagawa said, "I'll get better colors over the years," so I look at only one accessory every day to look forward to seeing the old and good taste of wood.

　

This event is held several times a year. We recommend that you all have a rooting experience. I would like to try a different work next time.

　

"Making Flower Harrowing Regiment"-Flowers and florists from Mie Prefecture gather on Mie Terrace! -In addition to the petit arrangement workshop and exhibition of works, a spot sale of flower pots is also held <Participation fee> 500 yen <Application> Not required <Sponsoring> Mie Prefecture Council Inquiries Mie Prefecture Federation of Flower Trade Association (Inokuchi) ☎059-223-1787

When I entered the venue, a gorgeous flower Halloween decoration work jumped into my eyes. I was doing a contest, so I chose my best work and voted. At a later date, the voting results were announced, and excellent works were exhibited. The work I voted for was not selected, but the winning work was an allegation with neat exchange.

　

　

Flower pots were also sold. When I asked if Mie Prefecture's flowers are also sold in Tokyo, I learned that they can only be purchased at Mie Terrace events right now. I'm very sorry because there is no sales route in Tokyo.

　

I applied on the spot and had a flower Halloween reception experience. First of all, I chose roses and gerbera flowers of my favorite color, and then started to grow flowers on the seats with pumpkins. The staff carefully taught me the procedure, and a work that I was satisfied with myself was completed.

　

It's an opportunity every year. I have been participating in this event for three years. Every year, the theme of the work is different, so I'm looking forward to it next year.

(We have obtained the consent of Mie Terrace regarding the description of the article.)

 

 

From 9:00 am on Sunday, December 3rd, the annual "Oedo wholesaler festival" will be held!

This festival is held twice a year, and this is the 26th time. Bakurocho, the eastern end of the Nihonbashi district, is a wholesale district that continues from Edo. Normally, the general public does not enter the store, but anyone can shop only on the day of the wholesaler festival! You can enjoy shopping at a surprising wholesale price.

　

Every time, there are fun events such as brass band and samba, and of course there are also delicious food and drink stores (some places where you can sit and rest), and it will be very busy from the morning. In particular, the winter wholesaler festival is very recommended. Because leather goods and cashmere relationships are very cheap! Gloves, stoles, bags, coats, etc. that seem to be "Oh, good" at a glance are sold at a truly surprising price. There are also women's men's items, things that can be worn easily by grandmothers, and stylish ones for young girls. There are also nice miscellaneous goods! Even if you feel like you have become a wholesaler, it is very fun to ladder this shop and shop, and people from all over the country gather.

　

Bakurocho, the stage, is actually an area that is currently attracting attention. It has Nihonbashi in the west and Sumida River in the east, and many historical sites remain. In recent years, there has been an increasing number of high-sense cafes, restaurants, galleries, interior and fashion shops. It can be often visited on TV programs around the city (unfortunately, there are many shops closed on Sunday, so if you are looking for it, please check the opening time!) 。

　

The venue for the wholesaler festival is not just on the website. Detailed maps will be distributed locally, but shops are waiting in a wide range of places. There is also a wonderful shop for people outside the street, so please consult with your physical strength and visit your favorite "Wholesale Street". The mannequins of each store also have their own personality, so be sure to check them out!

　

The nearest stations are Toei Shinjuku Line "Bakuro-Yokoyama Station", Toei Asakusa Line "Higashibashi Station", JR Sobu Line Rapid "Bakurocho Station", Tokyo Bus East 42 "Asakusabashi" (Be careful because it is a bus stop next to "Asakusabashi Station"!) 。 It is about a 5-minute walk from Asakusabashi Station on the JR Sobu Line and Kodemmacho Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line.

On a pleasant sunny day of Koharu weather, we went to Hamarikyu Onshi Garden.

At the entrance, there was a notice of "Tokyo Metropolitan Garden Autumn Leaves Tour stamp rally".

The exhibition "Spatial Erosion" by Daiya Yamamoto is being held at REIJINSHA GALLERY, a gallery located in Ginza 6-chome.

The gallery is located on the first basement floor of the Mitsuwa Building, and the first floor is "Jewel Miwa" (see map below).

Located at the intersection of Miyuki-dori and Nishi-Gobangai-dori, the entrance to the gallery faces Nishi-Gobangai-dori.

The period is from Friday, November 10 to December 1 (Fri).

The time is from 12 to 19. Please note that the last day will be until 17:00.

Closed on Sunday, Monday and public holidays.

When I saw the work, I was overwhelmed by Yamamoto's skill.

It may be accurate to say that the judgment of whether it was overwhelmed or whether this was really drawn was not understood even at close distance by attaching the face to the work, and that it was very confused.

The work below is a masterpiece with the height of a person, but there is only one real "handle" in this, do you understand?

Except for one, it is a "handle" drawn.

The staples' needles, thin threads stretched, and their shadows are drawn on the canvas, so they appear out of the picture.

A stapler needle in the blue part of the above work is drawn.

The work itself looks like it's plunged into the wall of the gallery, just the "space erosion"

In Western Europe, etc., we often see Tromp Leuille (deceiving paintings) on the wall decorations of churches and palaces, but Yamamoto's work is just as realistic as the material we usually see.

It seems to be terrible, but all the works below are also drawn.

"Seeing doesn't seem at first glance,"

On REIJINSHA's website, there was a comment saying, "Please experience" self being deceived comfortably "", but that's exactly right.

Please come to the gallery, see it with your own eyes, and be fooled.

Regarding photography and coverage at the gallery, the gallery and Mr. Yamamoto gave their consent and cooperation.

Thank you very much

Currently, at Megumi Ogita Gallery, a gallery located in Ginza 2-chome, a new solo exhibition "Night Age Times of night" by artist from Taiwan, Ryan Suu is being held.

The period is from Friday, November 17 to December 9 (Sat).

The hours are from 11 am to 7 pm, and are closed on Sundays, Mondays and holidays.

You said that you have held solo exhibitions many times at this gallery, but this was the first time I heard about it.

It seems that he has been painted in white and black all the time and has animal motifs.

All the works on display are new works.

It is a group of monotone works that convey the tranquility that is suitable for viewing in a quiet gallery on the first basement floor.

I felt that there was something similar to Monochrome ink painting because I was from Taiwan.

The work is called acrylic paint.

The white in the black seems to emit light, depicting beautiful and mysterious animals.

I think this is the perfect solo exhibition for this season in winter.

We recommend that you take a look.

Thank you for your understanding of photography and coverage in the gallery.

Thank you very much
