This highly anticipated selling show marks the return of celebrated illustrator and visual diarist Sara Midda. Her work ranges in character from delicate, watercolours to humorous, even surreal, pen and ink drawings. Sara is best known for her books including In and Out of the Garden,South of France: A Sketchbook and Growing Up and Other Vices.

Alongside her books, she worked for 20 years with Japan’s first department store Mitsukoshi (now Isetan Mitsukoshi Holding Ltd), creating designs for homeware, children’s clothes and stationery. The exhibition will feature a selection of over 300 original works, including watercolours, sketchbook pages, illustrations from her books and her work for Mitsukoshi, as well as pieces created over the last few years.
