MoMA Exclusive: Yoshitomo Nara’s Little Wanderer—a  character based on his 1999 sculptures Little Pilgrims (Night Walking)—has found a home in this snow globe. Made from glass with a simple, round rubberwood base, this white-snow filled design is perfect all year long as a desk object. The figure is made from hand-painted resin. The Yoshitomo Nara Snow Globe measures 4.3h x 3.9" diam. Do not place the snow globe in direct sunlight. 

Since the mid-1990s, Yoshitomo Nara has exhibited around the world, working with a range of institutions he feels a strong affinity with. His approach to art-making is similarly dependent on his sense of connection to the process of creating; his paintings are expressions of colors that breathe life into his bold images; his sculptures bear traces of his fingers that have shaped their forms; and his drawings, a daily practice, capture the spontaneity of thoughts. Nara has numerous works in MoMA’s collection.
