Kuala Lumpur readies for a Sakura-themed digital art exhibition


If you have yet to experience Japan’s world-renowned cherry blossom season, you’ll soon be able to take a stroll at LaLaport BBCC mall in the heart of Kuala Lumpur to check out the digital blooms in the "Sakura Festival" immersive art experience, which opens this Saturday.

The festival is powered by Naked, Inc, a Tokyo-based outfit that will be marking its first-ever digital art and projection mapping display in Malaysia, after successfully presenting shows across Japan as well as in Paris and Shanghai. Its most recent immersive art showcase was at the World Heritage Site Nijo-jo Castle in Kyoto for this year’s Sakura festival.
