The stars and the universe are always fascinating, and Viviane Cosmica brings us one step closer. Her depiction of the cosmos and all that it entails, grasps both tangibility and mysticism.

Elegant and powerful works of art that find its place regardless of location.

Flower Stylist: HANADOROBOU (Mr. Flower thief)
LoveHo says:
HANADOROBOU is the definition of a cool floral artist. He refers to himself as the “flower thief”, arranging flowers guerilla-style on the streets; where you least expect it. If you ever happen to run into flowers popping out of a 7 Eleven printer, a sidewalk bin, or if you see a suspicious man on a skateboard with a bag full of colorful flora… it may just be HANADOROBOU in action.
Biography:
A clan of unidentified flower stylists.
They draw inspiration from the streets.
They do popup guerrilla flower stands on the streets of midnight Tokyo.
They love to mash up flowers and non-floral street materials.
They offer flower styling for shoots, space decoration, bouquets, arrangements, or anything flower-related.
Message from HANADOROBOU:
“We find romance in the story where people who usually wouldn’t care, get hit by a wave of emotions seeing flowers blooming on the streets of their daily commute, and can’t help but to steal them.”
