Mary and The Witch’s Flower - Studio Ponoc

I am loving the magic effects in this movie already ;v; <3

[ghibli-collector]

The day before yesterday I was lucky enough to visit the Mary and witch’s flower themed “Garden Sand Cafe” Studio Ponoc have opened for a limited time at Tokyo’s Skytree Tower.

It was pretty amazing! the food was delicious and meticulously thought out and presented with such fun! The walls covered in concept and cel art and characters from the film and the staff and dishes added a little magic and a lot of entertainment to the experience! you. I highly recommend definitely trying the Magical Rainbow Tea Soda which comes with an assistant to help you out and cheer you on :D but I cannot reveal its magical secrets Witch you will have to discover for yourself :P

You can also cosplay in the clothes provided and get your picture taken in front of a huge film backdrop with characters! And of course there’s a pretty big range of film merchandise to be purchased. But the meal itself comes with a few little themed souvenirs too :D if you’re in Japan in the next few months I’d definitely recommend taking this rare window to visit!

“Chimaera” at Superchief Gallery.

Currently on view at Superchief Gallery in Los Angeles, California is the amazing three person exhibition with works from Lauren YS, Nomi Chi and Kristina Collantes entitled “Chimaera.”

These three artists come together from three very different areas of the art industry – muralism, tattooing and editorial illustration; respectively, each bringing a fresh and strange voice to the conversation about what it means to be many parts of a whole as a femme in today’s world.

Definitely drop by if you’re in Los Angeles.
