Experience the Artistic World of Mr. Slowboy at His First Original Art Exhibition in Japan
From June 14 to July 6, 2025, Tokyo will embrace the vibrant artistry of Mr. Slowboy, an internationally acclaimed fashion illustrator, with his first original art exhibition titled _Suitcase and Showcase – The Original Artwork of Mr. Slowboy, Unpacked_. This eagerly awaited event will take place at Vulcanize London Aoyama, a flagship store nestled in Tokyo's bustling district known as Little London.
A Fusion of Cultures and Creativity
This unique exhibition is organized in collaboration with Daks, a British luxury brand with a royal warrant, and Globe-Trotter, a prestigious travel brand. The primary goal of this event is to immerse visitors in the rich tapestry of British culture while showcasing Slowboy's creative prowess.
The exhibition will feature around 50 original artworks, including pieces created specifically for Daks' collaboration range. Attendees can expect to see a diverse array of illustrations that highlight not only Slowboy's distinctive style but also his contributions to the fashion industry.
Special Events and Celebrity Appearances
Marking the exhibition's inauguration on June 14, Mr. Slowboy himself will be present in Japan for a special signing and talk event—exclusively for those who purchase his collaborative suitcase designs. Additionally, a silent auction featuring a unique hand-painted illustration suitcase designed specifically for this exhibition by Mr. Slowboy will be held during the event period, offering attendees a chance to own a truly one-of-a-kind piece.
The Collaborations Unveiled
Alongside the exhibition, the collaboration between Daks, Globe-Trotter, and Mr. Slowboy will introduce a limited-edition capsule collection, available for pre-sale starting June 14, 2025.
This range captures the essence of travel through storytelling—featuring designs inspired by Mr. Slowboy's journeys alongside his beloved Dachshund mascot, Max. Crafted using Globe-Trotter's signature vulcanized fiber, the cases will come in stunning color combinations that echo the playful and imaginative world of Mr. Slowboy, promising not only aesthetic appeal but durability that travelers can rely on.
The Artistic Vision Behind Mr. Slowboy
Mr. Slowboy, whose real name is Fei Wang, began his journey in Beijing before relocating to London in 2015. He gained recognition as an art creative director at a prominent ad agency and has since made a name for himself as a fashion illustrator. His whimsical and modern style has garnered attention not just within the fashion world but across various lifestyle sectors, making him a sought-after artist in contemporary culture.
Why This Exhibition Matters
This exhibition is not just an opportunity to witness Slowboy's artistry but also to experience a slice of British culture within Tokyo.
