Hyakkō 100+ Makers from Japan

Explore the beauty of everyday things in Hyakkō, a collection of almost 2,000 exquisitely hand-crafted items.

Involving more than 120 artists, craftspeople and self-taught makers from across Japan, Hyakkō is a celebration of contemporary Japanese craft aesthetics.

This exhibition presents works in clay, glass, wood, leather, metal and bamboo – from ceramic matcha bowls to metal teapots and urushilacquerware trays. Each item bears traces of its maker’s surroundings and nods to tradition while quietly incorporating both innovation and self-expression.

Discover the people and processes behind the craft of Japan’s every day, where form and function exist in harmony.

Take your visit further through our programme of related events including hands-on workshops, gallery tours and a series of specialist talks. Visit the Shop for a wide selection of works by dozens of the makers featured in the exhibition.

Hyakkōis organized in collaboration with Ryohin Keikaku Co., Ltd. (MUJI).
