Dear Shaded Viewers

I was at ra for opening of Sayaka Yamamoto's exhibiton.

The japanese designer presented her drawings using elements of things she liked as a child which included mini plastic soldiers, butterflies, stuffed character toys which turned into imaginary plants and flowers. She produced pieces using the vintage buttons, plastic soldiers, metal leave broaches, gun shaped necklaces from ET soft toys and many other unique pieces for ra in Antwerp.

She also works with her partner Boaz Cohen on other artistic projects.
