Thank you, Soma, for a wonderful workshop on Japanese haiku and origami, part of our series of events related to the Japanese culture and the travelling installation The Suitcase Project exhibition.

The participants learned how to fold a paper balloon and a paper crane. Everyone wrote several haiku, capturing simple yet profound moments.

Rain-cold turned to heat
Inside, cozy, chocolate and warm poets
Ancient archives quivered in the back
