When the Sky Blooms with Sakura
by Cai Guo-Qiang
 
Commissioned by Anthony Vaccarello for Saint Laurent, the artist Cai Guo-Qiang created daytime fireworks titled When the Sky Blooms with Sakura, at Yotsukura Beach in Iwaki City, an area that had been devastated by the 2011 Japan earthquake and the resulting tsunami.
The instant bloom of the sakura in the sky conveys collective hope and a future where one day the land can become a pink sea of sakura.
 
Iwaki, June 26, 2023
Organized by the executive committee of When the Sky Blooms with Sakura
