About the Item

These paintings reflect Mr.’s on-going exploration of otaku, the Japanese “cute” subculture marked by fetishistic obsession with young adolescents, technology, sci-fi literature, manga, anime, and video games. Like his fellow Superflat artists, a group of artists inspired by and associated with Takashi Murakami, Mr. approaches the visual language of manga as a means of examining Japanese culture at large, depicting high and low forms of contemporary expression in bright colors and uplifting imagery. This style of cartoon and graphic-design culture is prominent in Japan’s media and entertainment industries. This style provides a fantasy that both exaggerates and abstracts the subject matter.  Mr. uses the style as a device to tackle challenging issues.
