Indigenous people who live in the Amazon River, the Amazon River and the Singu River basin in the north of Brazil. The one-piece chair that they make has a unique geometric pattern on the animal form and functional form and can be regarded as a unique shaped work. Originally, the chair for indigenous people is used in everyday life, it is used for special occasions such as rituals and wedding ceremonies by Sherman, they are closely associated with their lives, traditions and their own myths, It was also a cultural and social symbol. Today, stimulating from the connection with the outside of the community, seeking their own identity to the eyes to capture nature, more and more expressive expressions that are not bound by the application and tradition are born. This exhibition takes up about 90 chairs of Brazilian indigenous people by bay collection, trying to read the rich imaginative development of human beings in shaping born from their own sensibilities.

Tokyo

Tokyo (Japanese: [toːkjoː] , English /ˈ t oʊ k i . oʊ / ), officially Tokyo Metropolis, is the capital of Japan and one of its 47 prefectures. The Greater Tokyo Area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world. It is the seat of the Emperor of Japan and the Japanese government. Tokyo is in the Kantō region on the southeastern side of the main island Honshu and includes the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. Formerly known as Edo, it has been the de facto seat of government since 1603 when Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu made the city his headquarters. It officially became the capital after Emperor Meiji moved his seat to the city from the old capital of Kyoto in 1868; at that time Edo was renamed Tokyo. Tokyo Metropolis was formed in 1943 from the merger of the former Tokyo Prefecture (東京府 , Tōkyō-fu) and the city of Tokyo (東京市 , Tōkyō-shi) .
