Tokyo Stories (2023)

Based on a major exhibition at the Ashmolean in Oxford, Tokyo Stories spans 400 years of incredibly dynamic art – ranging from the delicate woodblock prints of Hokusai and Hiroshige, to Pop Art posters, contemporary photography, Manga, film, and brand-new artworks that were created on the streets.

The film uses the exhibition as a launchpad to travel to Tokyo itself, and explore the art and artists of the city more fully.
