◇ Comment from Ryota Katayose
At this year's MEET YOUR ART FESTIVAL 2025, we will be hosting a special collaborative project called "The Visions from Bouquet by MEET YOUR ART FESTIVAL 2025," which will combine music, fragrance, art, and talk.
There will be a live performance, an art exhibition unraveling the solo album "Bouquet," and a talk session, all of which I think will provide a deeply meaningful experience.
You will be able to experience Izumi Kan's fragrance, inspired by his album "Bouquet," in a three-dimensional performance, and there will be plenty to see, including a video performance with "ARCHIVES," and I am very excited about it myself.
Like the title "The Visions," my solo activities have revealed the past and present, as well as the future we are heading towards... I would be happy to share these various views. I think you will enjoy the whole day, including the talk session, so please come and spend time with me at the venue.
