20 models walked the streets of Tokyo

Spiral Wacoal Art Center

Models in Tokyo

In Tokyo the exhibition and event took place at Spiral Wacoal Art Center, designed by the famous Japanese architect Fumihiko Maki.

The Sound that filled the exhibition space was inspired by super marked music, played by the Norwegian saxophone player Torben Snekkestad and recomposed by the Japanese music composer Toru Yamanaka. 20 models walked through the intense busy city streets of Tokyo, passing the crowded, huge squares with noisy beautiful neon lights, immense billboards and impressive monitors, moving towards their final destination: the impressive Spiral Building in Aoyama.
