Experience the sophisticated excellence of Japanese craftspeople of the Nara prefecture at Lumine Singapore’s annual pop-up
In the age of constant innovation and advanced technology, working with your hands might seem like a forgotten art. However, it’s the newest generation of craftspeople who are drawn into the rich history and legacy of the Okuyamato, a collective of 19 cities, towns and villages in the Nara prefecture, who want to keep the traditions—and the environment—alive. This month, 14 woodworking Japanese craft makers will come together for Japanese concept store Lumine Singapore’s third edition of its animated pop-up event in Singapore.
Celebrating the best of artisanal Japanese craft and the famed Yoshino cedar and cypress, Into The Woods: Crafted from Yoshino Nature will take place at Lumine Singapore at The Central in Clarke Quay on November 26.
Visitors will get to explore the enchanting handiwork of the new generation of craftspeople working to protect the forests of Yoshino. Through the beauty of Yoshino wood products, visitors will also gain a deeper understanding of these artisans’ environmental efforts.
