Artist ruteN, who is represented by the contemporary art gallery "YUGEN Gallery (Minami Aoyama, Tokyo / operated by Gene Co., Ltd.)," will be performing a flower arrangement performance at the "Miyazaki City 100th Anniversary Hometown Exchange Event" to be held at Otemachi Place East Tower in Tokyo on Friday, November 8, 2024. In addition, several oil paintings with seasonal plant motifs will also be exhibited.
Miyazaki City will celebrate its 100th anniversary as a city on April 1, 2024, and as a commemorative event, it will hold the "Miyazaki City 100th Anniversary Hometown Exchange Meeting" with the aim of building a network with people with ties to Miyazaki in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Artist and ikebana artist ruteN is originally from Miyazaki City, and began working in Tokyo in 2014 after taking up a job as a model. Having grown up in the nature-rich Miyazaki, ruteN has loved plants since childhood, saying, "When I'm face to face with plants, I feel like I'm communicating with them without words, and my images expand." As she communicates with plants, she senses the flow of energy and spirit that flows within flowers and trees, awakening "something" that lies dormant within her, which she then translates into her flower arrangements and paintings.
Please come and enjoy ruteN's flower arrangement performance and paintings at the "Miyazaki City 100th Anniversary Hometown Exchange Event."
