[Background of the Project, Intentions, Aims, etc.]
Chronology of this event:
This exhibition "KIMONO FOREST" was held at the Museum of Kyoto in February last year with the aim of reviving and developing Kyoto's kimono industry, which was devastated by the Corona shock.
This year's exhibition is the second installment of the same series “KIMONO FOREST" will be held with even more power!
Features of this exhibition
-Multilingual operation. English, French, and Japanese. While last year's exhibition was held mainly for the domestic market, this year's exhibition will be more focused on the overseas market.
-A new futuristic exhibition with a focus on metaverse exhibits.
-Many exchange events will be held, and two-way communication will be possible at all times in the Metaverse. Visitors will be able to directly interact and talk with producers and artists they normally would not be able to talk with. Both business negotiations and general public interested in culture are welcome to participate.
-The lineup includes not only KIMONO, but also traditional performing arts performed while wearing KIMONO, art works using KIMONO, and much more. 10 exhibitions in the Metaverse and a real event in Kyoto.
-This event will create a "new world of expression" in the metaverse space, where "reality" and "the spiritual world of illusion and conception" merge.
-Participants can create their original avatars and join the Metaverse.
Our goal
-Send traditional Japanese culture to the world!
-Create a place for "creation of new traditions" to discover new values and pass them on to the future.
-Expect new collaboration through many hands-on experiences and exchanges
-To communicate to the world the current state of Japanese traditional culture, including KIMONO and other diverse traditional Japanese culture, and to encourage future users.
-The metaverse will be used to promote cultural exchange and transmission through new communication and networking. In particular, it is said that participation by avatars can draw out the diversity of personalities and modes of thought that people possess, and can encourage new discoveries by the participants themselves.
-The participants will discover new values of traditional Japanese culture and traditional industries together with the participants. Tradition is not simply a matter of the length of time it has been in existence; it is something that continues because of its universality and the value it holds for humanity to maintain it across regions and generations, while constantly encountering and incorporating innovation. We hope that new collaborations and innovations will occur through this exhibition. We hope that participants will not only be recipients and viewers, but will also actively interact and communicate with each other. 10 keywords: Metaverse, Avatar, traditional culture, Kyoto, Kodo(Incense ceremony), Kimono, Noh, Jiutamai, Nanzenji(Nanzen-temple), tea ceremony
