Held at the Tokyo Big Sight twice a year since 1994, Design Festa is an annual Tokyo art exposition that showcases the work of thousands of artists, whether it be traditional Japanese artwork, accessories, live music, or even food. Sculptor and mixed media artist YAGIGURA was recently featured at Design Festa vol.50, where Grape editorial staff was able to see some of YAGIGURA's fantastical creations.

Specializing in ceramic modeling and pottery since a student, much of YAGIGURA's clay sculptures are impressive expressions of nature that construct epic beasts out of plant motifs. Although there's still plenty room left for charming meerkats and rabbits as well!.
