HAYASHI Midori (doll) TANAKA Nagare (photo) ISHIGAMI Mari (short story) "Dream Child"

A strange doll and a strange story. Collection of gem collaboration works!

Recommended by Ikuko Hatoyama and Daijiro Morohoshi!!

Midori Hayashi continues to create one-of-a-kind puppet works, likening the figures of lovable children who can't fit into society to strange shapes that are amalgamated with plants, animals, and insects.

Photographer Nagare Tanaka captures beautiful photographs of this dear doll, and novelist Mari Ishigami contributes two short stories that resonate with that world.

In addition, Yuichi Nakagawa, who is known for the binding of "Kuroshitsuji" etc., has wrapped up a collection of gems with gorgeous and decadent designs!
