I was lucky to catch the tail end of Julian Opie’s portrait exhibition at SCAI in Tokyo. The show featured a series of portraits, walk cycles, subtle animations and holographic prints reflecting a Rambranteque style of portraiture. The essence of which are lost in still photos but i tried my best to capture the animations, thank you Yuka for letting me go nuts with the g10 in the gallery.

Holographic portrait. the pose changes slightly from different angles. Nice effect.
Framed animated walk sequence.

Animated painting, rotoscoped birds flying in the background and occasional eye blinking.

An exhibition of Balloon as Vase, a recent project by Shun Kawakami which was on display at Jagda Tokyo gallery in Roppongi.

I met Senekt at the KR x Levis launch last week, Tokyo based artist who fuses the Tokyo geometric street art stryle with his own brand of expressive abstract imagry. Check it out, it’s pretty dope.

Recent installation by the talented and hardworking Bonsai at Emerald Peacock, bar in Melbourne Australia.
Some new work planned by Bonsai for the next version of Nice Produce, currently being uploaded and looking good.

Stay tuned.
