MUJI Exhibition: A World of Miniatures by Tatsuya Tanaka

Welcome to the world of miniatures, where everyday items take on new life and meaning through the lens of Tatsuya Tanaka’s artistry. The small MUJI exhibition, titled “Enjoying Everyday Items,” invites visitors to immerse themselves in a delightful tapestry of creativity, whimsy, and humor.

MUJI, known for its minimalist designs that enhance daily life, collaborates with Tatsuya Tanaka, a miniature photographer and mitate artist renowned for his unique perspectives on ordinary objects. Through his ‘mitate’ artistry, Tanaka transforms MUJI products into miniature representations of varied life scenes, inviting viewers to see the world in a whole new light.

Visitors to the exhibition will encounter 16 original miniature works by Tanaka, each showcasing a different aspect of everyday life recreated in miniature form. In addition to these pieces, new creations tailored to the region and season of the display will be on view, including miniature replicas of Singapore’s landmarks that add a local touch to the exhibit.

Tanaka’s artistry not only showcases his creativity and attention to detail but also highlights the concept of ‘mitate’ – the act of observing, selecting, and likening objects to create new meanings and narratives. By engaging with the intentional blank spaces in MUJI products, visitors are invited to explore the playful and imaginative world of miniatures.

If you’re in Singapore between April 26, 2024, and June 25, 2024, don’t miss the opportunity to experience the small MUJI exhibition at MUJI Plaza Singapura. Step into a miniature universe where everyday items come to life in unexpected ways, and let Tatsuya Tanaka’s artistry spark joy and wonder in your day.
