Young V&A’s first major creative installation, Lost and Found Yōkai, sees umbrellas lost on London’s trains, Tubes and buses transformed by a host of contemporary artists and designers into a joyous ‘parade’ of yōkai . As part of Lost and Found Yōkai, visitors will be invited to hear sounds of supernatural Japan come to life, in a new work from sound artist and designer Yuri Suzuki, in partnership with design and research studio Very Very Far Away . The installation celebrates Young V&A’s current exhibition, Japan: Myths to Manga, which runs until 8 September 2024 . Lost and Found Yōkai will kick start May half-term activity at Young V&A, with a host of on-site events and workshops available for families to get involved in during the school break Inspired by Young V&A’s current exhibition, Japan: Myths to Manga, which runs until 8 September, Young V&A has invited contemporary artists and designers from a host of disciplines to joyously transform umbrellas previously forgotten on London’s transport networks, and donated via Transport for London’s Lost Property office, into yōkai, as part of Young V&A’s new major installation, Lost and Found Yōkai. The free indoor installation takes visitors on a journey through Kasa-obake Alley, where umbrellas once lost around the bustling streets of London, now dance with life at Young V&A. The installation draws from traditions of yōkai, a class of supernatural beings and entities that abound in Japanese folklore, literature, art and popular culture, in particular, the kasa-obake or umbrella monster. These playful spooks are a type of tsukumogami, everyday objects that receive a spirit and find new life as yōkai on their 100th birthday.
