Masters Sofvi

A collection featuring over 300 soft vinyl figures created by unique artists who reinterpret traditional Japanese toys as contemporary art. Sofubi, soft vinyl dolls, are traditional Japanese toys that have become a major boom not only among the generation that grew up with them but also among younger generations and overseas fans in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, the United States, and beyond. In recent years, distinctive artists have begun producing sofubi as their own works, elevating them to the level of fine art. This book not only introduces the sofubi themselves but also spotlights the artists who created them, exploring their design drawings, original sculpts, and backgrounds to reveal the appeal of their works.
