Tokyo Craft: Master of Glass

9th February 2018 by Will Stewart

Particularly beautiful use of colour again, in the second film we’ve featured in the Tokyo Craft series by Poweredby.Tokyo and PEN Magazine. Yamami san runs his workshop in trendy down-town Daikanyama, but his name is famous amongst a cult following in the US. It’s easy to become jaded with all the short films about tradesmen on the internet, but this series adds something fresh and exciting to the sub-genre.
