Seijin No Hi lampshade 成人の日

This is a traditional lampshade, glued on a transparent polyphane support and stretched on a metal structure. In Japan, Seijin No Hi is the day that marks the entry into adulthood for teenagers. This tradition has its origins in the ancient rites of passage of the Shinto religion. During these ceremonies, boys and girls receive their names and their adult clothes. With these two different ceremonial fabrics, one feminine, the other masculine, the Seijin No Hi lampshade is a meeting, a prelude to the union of these two principles.
