Kusamura, a plant shop that proposes unique beauty based on the concept of "happy-looking plants," will be holding its first exhibition in Osaka in three years, "Art Plant Inn - Kusamura Botanical Garden," from June 8th to 30th at The Blend Inn hotel in Osaka's Konohana ward.


For this exhibition, the hotel will be transformed into a temporary botanical garden, with Kusamura's unique plants on display in four locations: the guest rooms, lobby, rooftop, and annex. Each space has its own theme. The lobby, where people mingle and meet their precious friends, will feature "friendship." The sun-drenched rooftop, an essential part of life, will feature "trust." The annex will feature artworks themed on "end," which interprets "death" as the finale and beauty of life's greatest moment. The exhibition, which will take place in one of the hotel's rooms on the third floor, is open only to guests, allowing guests to enjoy a private time in a special space furnished with carefully selected plants. Poet Yoshinori Henguchi will also be offering a free gift of a poem about plants. A reservation-only talk show will be held on June 8th, featuring experts, designers, and artists from various fields, including Quasar's owner Kohei Oda. The talk will explore the concept of "life" and will be open to everyone, from children to adults.
