Nature Factory by Makoto Tanijiri

Diesel Denim Gallery Aoyama in Tokyo, Japan is presenting a store installation “nature Factory” by Makoto Tanijiri of Hiroshima architects Suppose Design Office. The installation uses plastic plumbing pipes and joints to create a series of tree-like forms inside the store.

Denim as recognised work clothes formerly has, at times, shown different expressions as fashion items to the people. Equally, a group of plumbing, usually unnoticed, shows completely different expressions under the name of “Nature Factory”. The complex plumbing, trailing by the wall in all directions will cover all over the space. It is like a tree grown over a long time. An atmosphere like a natural arbor is created in the space covered with artificial plumbing.

Diesel Denim Gallery Ayoama holds art installations twice a year on the 1st floor, and art exhibitions four times a year, featuring different artists on each floor. The installation runs until 31 January 2010.
