What you're seeing there is a detail from a painting by Ryota Tanabe at a show called 'Off The Shelf' at Space Force (http://www.space-force.com) in Nakameguro. The next picture (of the drawing desk installation) is from a show at the excellent Mizuma Gallery (http://mizuma-art.co.jp/news_e.html), also in Nakameguro: Kotatsu-Ha by Hironori Sakaguchi and Satoru Otsuka. The photo of me in the murky room with the big pink balloon outside is an interesting new art space up on top of the same building where Mizuma is, currently showing a kind of weird manga-otaku show with drawings on Starbucks napkins etc. You have to crawl under drying underwear to see it! The little girls in yukatas are from the Ebisu matsuri, the 'fire flowers' are from the Sumida river Hanabi festival, and the moon is over a graveyard in Hiro-o. All were photographed on Saturday.
