With the economy so bad, the venue Souvenir from Tokyo thinks it's time to find something uplifting and valuable in everyday gestures. To start with, take handkerchiefs. Some might think it's slightly awkward or troublesome to carry a handkerchief. Many people might say, "I used to carry it with me, but not these days..." It's such a minor thing, but because it is such a small thing, why not start practicing daily etiquette by carrying a handkerchief? Pick up a handkerchief with a fold line creased tightly and pull yourself together. In order to move forward, keep your handkerchief handy, and wipe off your sweat, running nose and tears in hard times and good times.

For this exhibition, five creators collaborated with H Tokyo, a shop specializing in handkerchiefs, and produced 15 designs. SFT Gallery hopes that these handkerchiefs bring you good luck.
