Enter the story

THE STORY

It began with a bunny.

While preparing for the exhibition, TAROUT heard a story during conversations with Paul Smith Japan about Paul, a bunny and good luck. One question led to BUNNY PAUL: what if Paul really had found the bunny?

Each picture leads to another, with different paths to choose along the way. The 80 artworks once filled the gallery walls. This web edition lets you explore them at your own pace.

THE EXHIBITION · 2011–2012

Welcome to BUNNY LAND.

In the winter of 2011, Paul Smith SPACE Gallery in Jingumae, Tokyo, became BUNNY LAND. Bunnies stepped out of the pictures to welcome visitors.

A bunny-shaped BUNNY LAND sign with an arrow, a small rabbit sculpture at its foot, and three wall signs reading YES, YES and NO.

BUNNY LAND

BUNNY LAND, this way.

At the entrance stood the BUNNY LAND sign that also appears in the artworks.

A black LUCKY BUNNY LUNNY sculpture with striped ears beside a pink flower-covered cake and a glass jar of colourful sweets.

Off the page.

With ears bearing Paul Smith’s iconic stripes, LUCKY BUNNY LUNNY took three-dimensional form and joined the exhibition.

Cream puffs with bunny ears stand on a display decorated with pink flowers.

A party from the story.

Sweets from the story appeared at the reception, including cream puffs with bunny ears.
