Japanese Artist Ryotaro Muramatsu's "DANDELION PROJECT" On display in UAE's Emirate of Sharjah until January 21, 2024
Presently on display at the Tower of the Sun in the Expo '70 Commemorative Park in Osaka and in Taipei starting December 21 , the DANDELION bridges these cities with Sharjah in real-time through blooming flowers of peace.
Since founding NAKED, INC. in 1997, Muramatsu has led projects from filmmaking and spatial presentation to live performances of traditional Japanese arts. With a film production background, he directs projects beyond traditional boundaries, weaving technology, formative arts, sound, and scents into compelling narratives, attracting billions of guests worldwide. In 2018, Muramatsu began creating fine art as a solo artist, fusing multi-sensory elements into personal and conceptual themes. The "DANDELION PROJECT," launched in 2020 as a response to the COVID-19 affected world, aims to unite divided people through art.
"DANDELION is an art piece that connects people worldwide with a simple physical act of making a wish on a dandelion—a childhood memory that many of us share. I hope we can go beyond our differences to connect with one another through art and plant flowers of peace throughout the world."
