Joanna Karpowicz in love with Anubis.

Joanna Karpowicz, Polish painter, comic artist and illustrator, invites us to her world of myths and symbols, where African golden wolf plays the main role.

Anubis, associated with different roles, such graves protector or mummification god, but usually as lord of underworld, weighing of the heart.

Should we stay with him, invite him to our daily life, here in earth, knowing he is the one who will urshe our souls into the afterlife?...

Shohei Otomo (Hakuchi). The other perspective.

He wants to illustrate today's Japan with an eye of outsider and with international perspective. That's for the global audience, as he still believes Japan really is an amazing country.

The same time  for local audience he hopes to give fresh perspective and to awake Japanese society to become less stressed, and get better life qualities. To get away from its craziness... as he says "Tokyo is nuts"...

Being son of famous illustrator Hatsuhiro Omoto, Shohei continues describing present reality with fresh look. Extraordinary combination of cultural symbols and everyday products in his art makes a completely new, international impression. Still without loosing its Japanese roots. Elements of street art, anime and  punk are blend under his ballpoint pen  into a masterpieces of modern graphic design.

Shohei lives and works in Tokyo.




   



 



                 


  

Yuji Moriguchi. Soft perverse fairy tales.

Yuji Moriguchi paintings are not obscure, not maybe even perverse in full meaning.

I've  got fascinated with mix of traditional Japanese illustration, probably rootted in Katsushika Hokusai famous erotic art...be honest all later Japanese artists take from him a bit :) ... and modern manga mix. 

With his fetish to octopuses, squids, frogs and other animals in context of featured fairy tales, Moriguchi takes us into a journey of his fantasies... with full respect to details and of course masterpiece illustrative skills. 

Yuji Moriguchi, is Tokyo based artist, exhibiting mostly in Japan.

Seungyea Park. We are all monsters inside.

I have spotted her few years ago, when she was coming out with faces and hands. Surprisingly I did not feel fear. There was something narrative in it, that was holding me for long.

Evolving, Seungyea goes deeper inside each of us, discovering our other natures.

'Monstrousness' caused by fear in our inner world,  as she describes her art.
