Edition 2: Takumi Next X Supermama

Have a taste of Japan in Singapore through the works of Japanese craftsmen who spent years honing their skills in a quest to perfect their craft. This month, we are delighted to present the second edition of “TAKUMI NEXT X SUPERMAMA” – a pop-up showcase of the next generation of Japanese Craftsmanship.

 

Takumi Next is a POP-UP showcase of the next generation of traditional craftsmen from Japan. The term “Takumi”(匠), refers to an “artisan” or “craftsman” in Japanese. As social norms and lifestyles evolve, we ponder the future of traditional crafts and the existential role of the craftsmen through a fine selection of everyday goods. The second edition features more than 100 pieces of articles from 47 crafts facilities located all over Japan. Through this selection, we hope to present a vision of the future of Japanese traditional crafts.

 

Curated by SUPERMAMA in collaboration with JETRO (the Japan External Trade Organisation) and METI (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry), Takumi Next aims to support Japanese craftsmen to expand their presence in Singapore. Through the lens of these craftsmen, you can get a glimpse into the inner workings of a nation, Japan’s history and the industries that drive its economy.
