Tamabi Sculpture Dept. MFA Exhibition 2026 "Stand, Pierce, Climb" at Shibuya Hikarie

The "Tamabi Sculpture Dept. MFA Exhibition 2026: Stand, Pierce, Climb" will be held at 8/COURT in Shibuya Hikarie. This exhibition showcases the works of three selected graduate students from the Sculpture Department of Tama Art University, marking the 18th iteration of this prestigious selection exhibition.

Featured Artists and Their Artistic Worlds

The selected artists for this year are Koshin, Toshiki Sadako, and Jutaro Nozawa. The exhibition title, "Stand, Pierce, Climb," symbolically represents the bodily actions that each artist explores in their work. Visitors can expect to encounter sculptures that, despite their static form, convey a sense of dynamic, almost writhing physicality. These are the most highly-regarded pieces produced by the graduate students during the first semester.
