Yasashii Sekai Collection Opens October 1 in Shibuya with 29 Wordsmiths
The exhibition turns a shisha bar into a distribution channel for short written work, with visitors leaving stickers for the next person, so the roster of 29 contributors and the in-store placement matter as much as the texts themselves.

musch Inc. will hold "Yasashii Sekai Collection @musch," an exhibition of words and kindness, from Thursday, October 1 to Saturday, October 31, 2026 at the musch Shibuya Miyashita Park-mae store. A total of 29 writers, including authors, poets, musicians, and social media creators, will contribute new works. The first 10 participants have been announced, among them Suzuki Geronimo, Okamoto Maho, and Okamoto Reiji.
The works will not hang only on the walls. musch plans to place them on tables and on the shisha devices themselves, so visitors read while drinking, eating sweets, and smoking.
On the way out, visitors can write their feelings of the day on a sticker and leave it in the store for whoever comes next. The words accumulate across the month, and the organizers describe the space itself as growing over the run.
The first 10 of the 29 participants have been named so far.
