What is Yamanashi Hemslöjd? History, philosophy and project

16 – 30 July, 2024
Since Mikiko Yamanashi experienced the richness of the Scandinavian way of living on her first trip to Europe in 1967, she has been working with the belief that the beauty in everyday life is supported by handmade objects. Since 1971, Yamanashi Hemslöjd has been operating with this philosophy by organizing exhibitions, passing on techniques through schools and classes, publishing more than 50 books, and providing quality materials and handicrafts.
This exhibition will showcase Yamanashi Hemslöjd’s philosophy of living with selected handmade works that add colour to our lives.
