Business hours: 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

The theme of this exhibition is pandas.
Rather than the animals themselves, it is about stuffed animals, clothes, and other conceptual panda things.
As a negative person, I am always saved by seeing and making cute things.
Pandas are like a representative of those cute things.
By wearing cute pandas, I and the children in my paintings are protecting their soft hearts with the strongest equipment.　　Sumisha
