RHC Yokohama Minatomirai
The concept for this project was for me to design and paint my own pop-up work shop -"kngee's Paint Shop for RHC", sign and while I was in RHC store in Yokohama(11/17-11/22), I used the pop up shop space to paint and decorate vintage objects such as eames chairs, pepsi sign, glass jars, Christmas ornaments, etc.  I also brought empty paint cans and hand painted posters to make the space look like my studio in Boston. 
A beautiful large painting that says 1STEPFORWARD on the wall is not my work and it was by the artist from the SF Bay Area, Jeff Canham.
