Following the editing of graphic design agency Kokoro & Moi's biography for Les Éditions Pyramyd, I curated a retrospective exhibition for them at NOW IDeA gallery in Aoyama, Tokyo in October 2009. The 'Air Current/Past' exhibition presented Kokoro & Moi’s work from a new perspective, depicting a journey instead of the destination and exploring the elements of variation, collaboration and play in the agency’s projects over the past eight years.
The project featured an aerogami workshop by Takuo Toda, the holder of the world record for the longest paper plane flight. Folding and flying A4 prints presenting a retrospective take on Kokoro & Moi’s design, Mr. Toda and the workshop participants jointly produced an exhibition of paper planes in the air.
