80 GRAPHIC TRIALS -20 Years of Challenges by 80 Creators and TOPPAN

Schedule: June 27, 2026 (Sat) – September 23 (Wed)
Venue: P&P Gallery, Printing Museum, Tokyo

Celebrating its landmark 20th anniversary, the GRAPHIC TRIAL project marks two decades of experimental design and creative challenge. Since its inception, the project has invited leading creators to push the boundaries of printing expression. To commemorate this milestone, a special commemorative exhibition is being held, bringing together all 400 poster works created by the 80 participating designers and artists over the past 20 years.

Santi Lawrachawee is proud to participate in this major celebration, presenting his poster artwork titled “Mind” in Part 2 of the exhibition. Originally created for the GRAPHIC TRIAL project in 2018, Mind reflects an ongoing exploration of graphic form, human connection, and experimental printing techniques.

 GRAPHIC TRIAL” is an initiative that explores new possibilities in graphic design and print expression through collaboration among creators and TOPPAN, realizing these possibilities in the form of poster artworks. 

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of this project, which began in 2006, we will be exhibiting all 400 poster works created by 80 artists over the years in a three-part series. 

This is the first attempt to bring together a diverse collection of works born from the single constraint of a five-poster series, showcasing the unique perspectives, ingenuity, and developmental methods of the creators. 

We invite you to enjoy the creative interplay between the bold ideas and the exceptional technical skill behind each work. 

GRAPHIC TRIAL, which has been creating works centered on print expression, will further expand its genres and evolve. We hope you will look forward to TOPPAN’s new trials in the future.
