His mesmerizing Water Block glass benches have been a permanent fixture there since 2011.
Now those in Tokyo can enjoy Yoshioka’s “Glass Project.” This small exhibition at 21_21 Design Site Gallery 3 until 13 November provides a brief retrospective of Yoshioka’s career so far.
The works begin outside with Waterfall, a table made of the world’s largest optical glass.
The triangular form of the bench harks back to the 500 prisms he used in his 2010 masterpiece Rainbow Church.
Admission to “Glass Project” is free and provides a nice aperitif before heading to Wild: Untamed Mind next door in the Design Sight main building.
