Takashi
Kimura
Takashi Kimura graduated from Aoyama Gakuin University, College of Business Administration, and completed the Graduate School of Media Design at Keio University. While conscious of the 600-year-old traditions and aesthetics of ikebana flower arrangement, he is pursuing new methods of expression for the next generation, seeking venues for expression in urban public spaces and the virtual Metaverse, and actively planning and collaborating on floral fashion items. In recent years, he has directed a large-scale traveling exhibition in China.
After working as an exclusive florist for a casino and resort facility (The Venetian Macao), he formed Plantica in 2008, a creative studio that uses a variety of techniques to communicate the appeal of flowers. He has been involved in a wide range of floral direction, from the production of facilities at Hoshino Resort and Huis Ten Bosch to flower arrangements for events, commercials, and advertisements for cosmetic and fashion brands.
In 2015, Takashi was in charge of flower direction (Kacho Fugetsu, Shiki, Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind) at the Japanese Pavilion at the Milan International Expo. To represent as an emerging cultural figure, he has appeared in UNIQLO TV commercials and advertisements as a fleece ambassador (2009, 2014), and has been interviewed by NHK WORLD, and the French broadcaster Canal Plus for documentary programs. His activities have attracted attention from the media both in Japan and abroad.
