Ichibayashi Hokumichi
Hokuto Ichibayashi
Ichibayashi Hokuto / Born in Ishikawa, Japan in 1992. Graduated from Kyoto Seika University, Faculty of Art, Department of Art and Design, majoring in Japanese painting. Instead of using traditional Japanese painting paints that use minerals, animals, and plants found in nature as coloring materials, he chooses to use acrylic paints and other materials to express the realistic aesthetic sensibility of a generation born and raised in a society surrounded by manmade things. Making full use of traditional Japanese painting techniques, he creates works that incorporate the visual expressions of games and feature the customs of the 2000s and beyond as motifs.
WOK22
Wok22 / Born in Aichi, Japan. Currently based in Fukuoka. Graphic artist and painter. He began his career as an artist in 2008 and has collaborated with a wide range of brands, including STUSSY, Adidas, and Hakata dolls, and is also active in Asia, including Taiwan, Korea, Thailand, and the Philippines. His work is characterized by bright yet profound colors, and he excels at collage-like drawings that combine various elements rather than painting a single picture.
