On January 9, 2025, Princess Kako of Japan visited a special exhibition titled "The Pokémon × Kogei: Playful Encounters of Art and Japanese Craft," held at the Azabudai Hills Gallery. The exhibition includes approximately 70 Pokémon-inspired craft works, ranging from simple reproductions of Pokémon created with materials like copper to intricate artistic expressions, such as jars intricately designed to incorporate Pokémon shapes.
Kogei is a term used to describe Japanese traditional arts and crafts. Twenty artists, ranging from established masters to young and emerging creators, have drawn inspiration from Pokémon designs, evolutions, attacks, and journeys to craft unique pieces that merge traditional craftsmanship with the vibrant world of modern pop culture. Notable artists featured in the exhibition include Kasumi Ueba, Sadamasa Imai, Morihito Katsura, Takuro Kuwata, Saori Mizuhashi, and more.
Adorable princesse Kako que je trouve plus élégante dans ce manteau ceinturé près du corps sur une robe noire ; par contre, les chaussures sont toujours dans le même style donnant une impression de lourdeur !
ReplyDeletePrincess Kako always manages to look beautiful and elegant within the confines of what appear to be strict wardrobe rules for members of the Imperial family.

ReplyDeleteThe more I see of her, the more I like her. She seems a great asset to the Japanese Imperial Family.
