Spiral will be holding Spiral Xmas Market 2023, introducing design and craft items by over 50 creators and a variety of art works through a commercial exhibition.
The event, placed under the theme of "fusion of life and art," will be divided into 3 parts, PART1 and PART2 will focus on crafts, jewelry, fashion items and more, selected because they are the perfect seasonal gifts. PART 3 will showcase the works of up-and-coming artists selected by Spiral and contemporary art galleries.
This time, the tree ornaments and main visual are created by Tomoaki Murayama, an artist known for his detailed pen drawings of animals and plants, under the theme of harmony and communion with Nature.
The concept, focusing on connections, is expressed through dynamic animals and the flowing gold lines joining them. The beautiful energy of the visuals, spreading both in the venue and digitally, through AR, carries a want to deliver the value and the necessity of caring for others.
We look forward to your visit to Spiral Xmas Market, an event where you will find the perfect gifts to express your feelings to your loved ones, enjoy a variety of creations and meet with many creators.
