01=Kirin
02=Turtle
The Art Collection guest suites feature artworks created exclusively by sculptor Tomoya Tachibana. Alongside the Houoh, the dragon, kirin, and turtle are auspicious mythical creatures that have long been revered in Japan and serve as symbolic motifs throughout ESPACIO. Tachibana reinterprets these traditional forms through his own artistic sensibility, positioning them between tradition and modernity, and between figuration and abstraction.
Tomoya Tachibana
Tachibana completed the Master's Program in Metalwork at Tokyo University of the Arts in 1999. He subsequently established Studio Tachibana. Focusing on commissioned projects in Japan and abroad, he creates spaces that evoke emotional responses through the thoughtful combination of materials and techniques suited to each setting.
