Akari Takaishi Photo Exhibition "MELT IN AKARI TAKAISHI" at Ikebukuro PARCO

The photo exhibition "MELT IN AKARI TAKAISHI" by actor Akari Takaishi will be held from December 4th to December 21st, 2026, at PARCO FACTORY on the 7th floor of Ikebukuro PARCO. This exhibition celebrates the release of Takaishi's second photobook, "melt" (published by Magazine House), and will feature a large number of exclusive photos taken in New Zealand immediately after the wrap-up of her role as the heroine Toki in the NHK serial TV novel "Babake".

The exhibition's title, "melt," was personally chosen by Akari Takaishi, signifying her feeling of "hidden inner self melting away" during the shooting period. The venue, designed in collaboration with emerging designer Haruki Miyake and PARCO, aims to allow visitors to experience this "melting" sensation. The collection will offer a glimpse into Takaishi's candid moments, going beyond the curated selection in the photobook.

Notably, December 19th, the final day of the exhibition, is Akari Takaishi's birthday. A special event will be held on this day where attendees can receive their signed photobooks directly from her. Please be aware that during the specific time slot for the photobook handover event, only selected participants will be allowed entry to the venue.
