Doll Exhibition from Shizuho Uji
And now for something completely different...
Beginning today and running thru Sep 13, there is a doll exhibition presented by Shizuho Uji. Born and raised in Furano, she began making dolls for her young children more than 50 years ago. She has exhibited her works in several locations in Japan, and received multiple cultural awards.
Her works are creative and entertaining. First she creates a story, then begins making dolls to tell that story. She utilizes all natural products, such as wool and cotton, and even dyes them using nuts and grasses.
The exhibit runs from 10-17:00 every day thru Sep 13, and is located in the 1F of the Concierge Furano building.
See you in Furano.
