Masanori Ushiki牛木匡憲

Inspirations of the not-so-distant future.

Always experimenting with new expressions, from something funny to something fashionable, Masa's art focuses on a sense of togetherness, diversity, and continuity through the unique characters he creates which are often influenced by Japanese anime, special effect films, and toys from the 80's and 90's.

By drawing characters set slightly in the future, his art invites the viewers to fantasize and relish the narratives of these characters, from their lifestyles to paranormal values, ultimately leading up to imagining the advancement of humankind.
