Located in Nakazakicho, a low-key area adjacent to Umeda, iTohen gallery provides a café, gallery, and bookstore. The exhibition on display right now is "Unknown Protection Corps" by eco, a Kansai-based two-person artist group.

The playful and simple images on the wall, bordered by thick black lines, remind us of a manga-like narrative.

Yet, each frame possesses a small narrative of its own.

Surrounded by books, art, and the smell of coffee... what more to ask in a polar bears' life?
The exhibition is showing at iTohen Books Gallery Coffee until March 30th.
