Works
Since the 1980s, he has established an international reputation for his innovative design work, and he has developed a diverse range of genres of expression with his unique concept of modeling derived from the phenomenon of nystagmus (constant, minute, and involuntary movement of the eyeball). [4] In order to trace Yahagi's contemplation and activities over a period of about 35 years, an exhibition was held at the Museum of Modern Art, Hayama from November 2021 to January 2022. The exhibition featured over 400 works and materials. The main works exhibited were HIDDEN JAPAN: a collection of photographs which was exhibited around the world from 1999 to 2012 as part of the Japan Foundation's overseas touring exhibition, conceptual art in the same format as a B1 size (728 x 1030 mm) poster, and graphic works that no one has ever produced before.[2]
