Tomato Shiseido
Tomato is a group of artists, designers, musicians and writers who create and deliver cross platform, multi-media art and design projects: both commercial and research based, for national and international clients. One of my favourite pieces by Tomato is Shiseido in which they were commissioned to create an exhibition looking at the two capital cities: London and Tokyo. This exhibition was held at the Shiseido Gallery in Ginza, the show comprised an installation of video, text and sound in a comparison of the cultural similarities and differences between the cities and their people. Six topics were explored; love, food, faith, communication, money and transit. The results created some interesting juxtapositions seen between two cultures. I think this is a brilliant way to compare two main cities and how they may be similar or different when specifically looking at culture. I like how they used transparent displays so you could view the display through multiple layers and combine them t
