SHIBUMI GALLERY presents our 2025 Holiday Show, The Curated Ear, featuring Japanese designer Hirotaka alongside SHIBUMI artists: April Higashi, Ben Faryna, Elisa Bongfeldt, Kate Eickelberg, Kirsten Muenster, Lisa Ziff, Maral Rapp, Mew Chiu, Tura Sugden, Wendy Wagner, and Zoe Holtzman.
During a recent trip to Japan, April discovered Hirotaka whose vision for how one could wear earrings was inspiring and artful. She realized many of her clientele would appreciate the ear cuff fashion, as it didn't require adding another hole in their ear. She could envision the opportunity for styling, fun, and something slightly unexpected!
