DESIGN ART TOKYO x Playing With Fire / December 3, 2019 by Johnny Chiu

This year, Johnny Chiu returns to DESIGNART TOKYO, with the mysterious element that sparked human civilization -- FIRE!

Collaborating with the award-winning Lovinflame, which spent 10 years exploring fire, using a water-soluble, non-toxic fuel that only ignites at 104 Celsius, to produce real, safe, clean-burning, magically orange flames. Johnny will attempt to redesign the sensuality of Lovinflame's fire into various interpretations of Mount Fuji, a symbol of the spirit of Japan.

The installation will be on Tokyo's fashionable Omotesando boulevard at FrancFranc's premium brand “MODERN WORKS AOYAMA Limited Store”, newly opened in April this year to much acclaim. We invite you to come play with fire together and allow your senses to experience a glorious redefinition of your relationship with fire and spirit.
