Cats

Cat is one of the most beloved animals in the world. In Japan, there is a long history of using cats in art, from the playful felines that often appear in ukiyo-e woodblock prints, to the famous "sleeping cat" carving found at the shrine Nikko Tosho-gu. On this episode of DESIGN TALKS, we investigate what cats mean to Japanese designers. Our guest, photographer Kanji Bando, has made a career of photographing cats. Why are cats so appealing? Is it their ever-changing moods? Is it that they seem so free? Is it their soft yet agile bodies? Join us as we look at all kinds of cute cat designs!
