Release date: August 12 at 11:00AM CDT (12 noon EDT, 9:00AM PDT).

Thank you SO much to everyone who has visited Artechouse Washington DC’s HANAMI: Beyond the Blooms exhibit I collaborated with them.
Its initial exhibit schedule was from mid-March to April. But they had to shut down the venue after the opening weekend.
They were able to open on July 9th, with the original schedule of closing in early September. By popular demand, it was extended till October 4.
Thank you so much again.
see more photos of HANAMI here.
Digital interactive experience at Artechouse in Washington DC I had worked on earlier this year had to close in March, just two days after its opening, due to COVID-19.
They are finally able to open its doors to the guests from July 9th.
Hope you get to enjoy the spring you had missed this year.
