THE MOVEUM YOKOHAMA opened at Yamashita Pier on December 20th.

This time, a collaboration featuring goods based on Klimt’s works has been realized within my series of homage pieces to famous paintings, and they are available for purchase in the shop space.

Of the three pieces currently on display, two are new works created specifically for this exhibition, while the third is a reproduction of a previously created piece.

Since Klimt is famous for a photograph of him holding a calico cat, I unified all the works as homages to calico cats.

The shop has free entry.
I would be delighted if you could come and see them.

The fair at Kyoto Tsutaya Bookstore has now ended successfully. To everyone who enjoyed the world of Manekimane-ko-chan during the event period, thank you so very much.
We are truly fortunate to have received such an opportunity despite being a newly created character.

We were genuinely delighted to see each and every one of you who welcomed the work into your collection, shared your impressions on social media, or reported your visit. Your voices are a tremendous source of strength for our next creations.

Regarding the capsule toys, the official online sales at Ken Elephant are now sold out, and the gachapon sales may end soon, but we hope to move forward with new developments.

We sincerely hope to continue nurturing a world featuring Manekineko-chan and new works with maneki-neko motifs—a world you’ll want to revisit. Thank you very much.

“Chicaco Toya’s Maneki Maneko fair” is currently being held in a mini corner at Kyoto Tsutaya Bookstore.
The world of Maneki-Maneko-chan is gradually expanding. Please come take a look! ✨

Solo exhibition “Good Luck Days” has come to a close.

Thank you so much to everyone who visited and to those who supported me through SNS.

With the wish to create art that brings happiness, I focused on lucky motifs like Lucky Cat”and also showcased my ongoing Loving Masterpiece series. I’m so grateful for the many kind messages and smiles.

It was a dream come true to exhibit at Roppongi Hills A/D Gallery. I’m especially thankful for all the wonderful encounters and support throughout the show.

Art, to me, is about sharing feeling and joy—not logic. I’ll keep creating with heart and hope to see you again at future exhibitions.

I’m always open to opportunities for exhibitions and collaborations, both in Japan and abroad. If you’re interested, please feel free to reach out.

With heartfelt thanks,
Chicaco Toya /とやちかこ

Toya Chicaco uses animals and human as motifs, incorporating good luck poses and auspicious motifs, while mixing in elements from fairy tales, vivid colors, and slightly unrealistic concepts to create her own fantastical world.

This exhibition will feature new works that will make the viewer’s heart feel lighter and brighter. Why not discover the small blessings in everyday life depicted by Toya Chicaco?
