A unique Shibutani PARCO 4F floor that was born with the keyword "sustainable". The alternative space "SKWAT" was further expanded, and a new shop specializing in interior art vintages was born. Chim↑ Pom from Smappa!Group's experimental shop project "Kinshami KANE-ZANMAI", "PART OF PART OF NATURE" which bought vintage items from all over the world with the aesthetic eyes of the owner, "GMKR" which sublimates discarded furniture as art, "Nature Lab Store" where daily goods such as fragrances and home care are available, and "Archives" where you can meet one thing in the world in a space like the backyard of a museum.

Questioning Capitalism and the Mechanics of the Art Market
Experimental Shop Project
The Shibuya PARCO 4F floor has been renewed based on the concept of sustainability, aiming to create a sales floor that proposes essential and continuous fashion art culture by reviewing the “natural” of commercial facilities so far. In the "SKWAT" zone, which borders the east escalator, a shop related to interior art vintages appeared. This is a permanent real store "Kinshami KANE-ZANMAI", a shop project that develops and sells experimental products of the artist collective "Chim↑ Pom from Smappa!Group". While art works are usually traded at a high price compared to “commodities,” “Kinshami” deals with both of them and tries to question the dynamics of capitalism and the art market, such as “how is the value of art created” and “where is the boundary between products and works?” Nokiko Mizuhara challenges the gold shami crane game, which doesn't know what to hang. On this day, we were selling the outer wall of the former Shibuya PARCO. "Wow, this is heavy and I can never hang it. The wall stone of the old Shibuya PARCO was demolished here…It is interesting to have a mysterious feeling that the times have slipped back in time only in this gachagacha,” says Ms.

Vintage Vase & Object in once-in-a-lifetime encounter
"PART OF PART OF NATURE" sells vintage items purchased by artist and naylist Kana Akiyama in the United States and Europe. Glass pottery, one-piece inserts, and unique objects…The white walls are lined with vases of “the only one in the world” and the expressive flowers that have been planted there are teaching to those who see the joy of living with flowers. “I love the vase! The shelves are full of vases (laughs). I want to go on a shopping trip with the owner! Various countries and different ages…Although the history of each item is different, it seems that there is a sense of unity in this way because it is selected based on the owner's "liking". Each one here has a story, and there are many ideas that are unthinkable today. "Why did you want to make this?" or makes you feel the infinite imagination of human beings. There are so many funny things like that.”
