FUTURISTIC FLOWERS - HARVEY NICHOLS COMMISSION
Futuristic Flowers is a series of seven large-scale art installations, commissioned by Harvey Nichols department store for its Spring/ Summer 2007 window display totaling 40 meters (130 foot) in length. 3D cutting techniques were employed to create individual organic, plant-like structures. These were combined with Yoshikawa’s signature layered balloon sculptures. The balloons have a blown glass quality, which in multiple creates a sharp contrast to the matt surfaces of the foam in the installation.
Futuristic Flowers was first displayed in the main Knightsbridge store in London throughout London Fashion Week until 22nd March 2007. The installation later toured the other UK Harvey Nichols branches.
