Tale of Artisans Vol.2 “Moyuru”

Shiba district in Tokyo is a place where you can still feel the wind of Edo-era. Shiba Park Hotel is a good old hotel that has weaved its way through time in harmony with the traditions and culture of this area. Shiba Park Hotel is also a library hotel with a diverse collection of books. We hold an exhibition called “Tale of Artisans” which tell stories of traditions (tales) that they have developed and nurtured.

Sprout, burst into bud

It is the sprouting season, when plants and flowers burst into bud. In Tale of Artisans Vol.2, the theme is “moyuru”, where two crafts will be introduced: “Edo Kimekomi Dolls”, which are entwined with multicolored textiles as if they are in bloom, and “Artificial Flowers”, where said dolls have flowers added to them. We would be delighted if something new is suddenly born in your heart, like a sprout breaking through the soil. Please take your time, and enjoy them as much as you can.
