'HERBMAN' is a project dedicated to conveying the harmony between humans and nature.
Having established Taki, a town with deep roots in medicinal herbs, as its 'permanent home,' it debuted at VISON on April 29, 2026.
As a presence that shares the history of plants accompanying human life and the wisdom inherited across various regions, HERBMAN has been traveling while cherishing the nature, people, and stories it encounters.
Using the container-style cafe & gallery that has accompanied its travels as a stage, a live painting event by artist Jun Inoue will be held on Sunday, May 31.
This container is a special space embodying the HERBMAN worldview. Mr. Inoue will paint motifs based on the lands HERBMAN has traveled, the plants and memories living in those lands, and the stories of the people. It will depict the very trajectory HERBMAN has walked, allowing viewers to see the space change its expression little by little over time.
On the day, Eiki Danzuka, a landscape designer and the creator of HERBMAN, and artist Jun Inoue will discuss the worldview HERBMAN aims for, its relationship with Taki, and the thoughts behind the art being created.
