In the room which showcases the beginning of Issey Miyake’s creation in the 1970s, the bodies are made with paper.
In the other room where Body Works, which Issey Miyake created with the theme of relation to human body in the 1980s, are exhibited, Tokujin Yoshioka displays the installation of transparent acrylic bodies which symbolize the future.
As if it overlaps Issey Miyake’s design principle “a piece of cloth”, each body has a grid structure composed of 365 parts cut out from a piece of board with laser cutting technique.
