Issues with finance became a huge problem for Yamamoto and his work however I personally don’t believe this is entirely relevant and has definitely not interfered with this visionary designer producing his exhibition currently displayed at the V&A, London. Yohji himself quotes ‘Painting is my passion. Thanks to the V&A they let me put my dreams on their walls!’ The exhibition will be there until July 2011 and is undoubtedly a must see with the installation- based retrospective showcase being Yamamoto ‘s first major solo UK show. - Contributor - Charlotte King
