Akiko Matsuda will be part of Dundee Design Festival 2024!

This September, my ceramic work will be part of the Dundee Design Festival.

I’m thrilled to be exhibiting alongside such inspiring designers from all around Scotland, and I’m honored to have been invited to make a work for this event.

This project has helped me grow so much over the past few months.

Please come visit the UK’s only UNESCO City of Design, Dundee!


今年の9月にスコットランド はダンディーで行われるデザインフェスティバルに出展します。
