The World Exposition (EXPO) is a global event held every five years, showcasing innovations in technology and culture, aiming to inspire deeper cultural collaboration. For Wales Day in Japan, Jukebox Collective collaborated with contemporary hand weaver Llio James, who created blankets inspired by both Welsh and Japanese traditions.

Through artistic and movement direction by Jukebox’s Director Liara Barussi, the designs were brought to life on film, blending heritage, craft, and dance into a playful love story told through unspoken moments of connection.
