Yokai Art Museum (Author)
The term "yokai" encompasses the many strange creatures and supernatural phenomena that enrich Japanese folklore and legends. Highly diverse, some yokai are wicked while others are bearers of happiness. The Yokai Art Museum, which is situated on the island of Shodoshima in the Seto Inland Sea, is the only museum in Japan dedicated solely to contemporary yokai. It boasts a collection of almost 1,000 artworks and serves as a hub of contemporary yokai creation. Visitors are guided by the voice of one such creature as they discover the origins and history of yokai and explore the contemporary world through yokai-themed art.
Akiko Iwamoto (Edited by)
Akiko Iwamoto runs a publisher based in France, which aims to make Japanese curious culture known worldwide.
Masanobu Kagawa (Foreword by)
Masanobu Kagawa (known as Dr. Yokai) is the author of many yokai-related books, the first accredited Japanese yokai scholar, and head curator of the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of History.
