Museum of Mom's Art Autographed by Tsuzuki Kyoichi and included with a new photo

Mom art is a big blow to little intellects!

It's everywhere, unrespected by anyone, and even the makers themselves don't think of it as art, so it can't be bought or sold, but it is often given to people, and even then we don't feel particularly happy. It's neither highbrow nor lowbrow, it's a bright shock of nobrow. It's neither conceptual nor rebellious, but the "pure joy of moving your hands" that will make you smile and bring tears to your eyes. This book features over 350 pieces of such "Mom Art" in full color. From glove dolls, ribbon dolls, origami crafts to flyer baskets, it's cute, nostalgic yet new.⁉In addition to the artworks themselves, this is a collection of exquisite mom art that also includes introductions and interviews with charismatic mom artists.

As an exclusive bonus for Kenelephant EC sales, in addition to a signed book by Tsuzuki, we will randomly include a monochrome Polaroid photo of a slightly creepy mom art piece taken by Tsuzuki. You'll have to wait until it arrives to find out what you get!
