2023.02.16 | ISSEY MIYAKE SEMBA | CREATION SPACE IKKO TANAKA ISSEY MIYAKE “The plant series”

The CREATION SPACE at ISSEY MIYAKE SEMBA presents a special installation “The plant series” from IKKO TANAKA ISSEY MIYAKE.

IKKO TANAKA ISSEY MIYAKE「The plant series」

Featuring the work of graphic designer Ikko Tanaka, IKKO TANAKA ISSEY MIYAKE is a project that started in 2016, with respect and appreciation to the designer, to explore and further convey the aesthetic of his creative work.

This collection goes beyond representing Tanaka’s work to integrate his graphic compositions into the construction of the garments—a product of Tanaka’s graphic design and ISSEY MIYAKE’s design and making. The compelling images and elaborate use of color found in Tanaka’s work bring a sense of joy and wonder and elicit pure curiosity. This collection of IKKO TANAKA ISSEY MIYAKE embraces the timeless beauty of Tanaka’s work like every past collection, as it invigorates people in their everyday living.

The motifs this time are the glossy peonies and peony-like flowers that Tanaka left behind, saying, “I just wanted to draw a single large flower in full bloom.“

*It refers to the group of works Peony-B, Peony-C (1990), Today in Graphic Design (1990), and Violet Iris and Red and White Camellia (1992).

You can experience the compelling graphics and colors of Tanaka’s work, and enjoy the IKKO TANAKA ISSEY MIYAKE collection full of vibrant energy.
