Pubrobe is a coined word combining the words “public” and “wardrobe,” and is a project to create a public wardrobe, like a clothing library, accessible to all. Inspired by a market in Nairobi, the artist Yoshinari Nishio will use Ebihara Shoten, a kanban kenchiku [signboard building] (2-3 story wooden shop and residence with only the front facade covered and decorated with fire-resistant materials) in Kanda built during the reconstruction period after the Great Kanto earthquake of 1923, as the base for this project. The shop had handled used clothing, ready-to-wear clothing, fabrics, and other clothing-related products.

They are widely calling for donations of clothing.We will collect clothes worn over the past 100 years from the earthquake to the present to compose a public wardrobe, connecting 100 years of people's time/life culture to the Tokyo of the future. A public wardrobe, “PUBROBE: 100 years of clothing” will appear at Ebihara Shoten, a public wardrobe that anyone can use like a clothing library. As a public space and community museum of clothing that is open to the community, the “PUBROBE: 100 years of clothing” will be used for a variety of activities, including lending out clothing, making replicas of clothing, and holding events.

Yoshinari Nishio will also hold an exhibition "Replica Play" at the NOGA Hotel Akihabara Tokyo (Kanda・Yushima area).
