Leftovers
Indian artist N.S. Harsha, winner of this year Arte Mundis prize, was in Tokyo yesterday to present his new show "Leftovers" at Maison Hermes in Ginza (sorry about the "e" in Hermes not having an accent, I'm still trying to figure out how to include it without getting this é è). The exhibit is largely inspired from the fake food displayed in most of Tokyo's restaurants, which Harsha noticed in a previous trip to Japan.
It took about 3 months to the Japanese workshops to create all the food.
The result is pretty realistic (we had to poke it to make sure it wasn't real). Check it out!
FYI, (for the fans), he also created a Carre Hermes for this Spring Summer collection with his signature miniature figures on it. Although I'm not sure if they are selling it in Tokyo. I guess it would make sense but you never know. Unfortunately, it wasn't in the gift bag...
