EVERING Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director CEO: Ken Kawada; hereinafter EVERING), a company that manufactures and sells smart rings equipped with VISA touch payment, will launch a limited edition collaboration ring with contemporary artist Ahhi Choi.

EVERING has pursued functionality as a ring that connects to all aspects of daily life, including payments, keys, and transportation. Now, for the first time, it is venturing into an art collaboration to propose new value as a "functional accessory."

The first collaboration partner is contemporary artist Ahhi Choi. His consistent artistic style of "capturing everyday objects and expressing them as part of life" deeply resonated with EVERING's product philosophy of "subtly blending into daily life." This collaboration was born from the desire to deliver to many people the experience of art that can be felt in hand during shopping and commuting, rather than art to be displayed and admired. The worldview residing in a small ring enriches daily life just a little.

■ Ahhi Choi Profile

Born in Hyogo Prefecture in 1983.
The curvilinear movements seen in his works are full of buoyancy and ecstasy, expressing his inner adventurous spirit.
He began to pick up his brush, drawing inspiration from his daily experiences, and recorded his adventures in an abstract diary style.
Allowing for bold arm movements, he transforms silhouettes, paintings, characters, and words extracted from memory into the energetic lines omnipresent in his works.
