« Tomoko Sawada: Artsy Cosplayer from Kobe | Main | I Fought Gamera and Won »
I love this piece depicting these strange flower people that I saw at at the Media Arts Festival in Japan earlier this month. In this artist's universe, we are all born from flowers. And the flowers sometimes turn a little bit weedy.
Does anyone know the artist's name? It's not in the press kit they gave me.

I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!

Gulp. I had a recurring nightmare about something spookily similar to this when I was little. It completely freaked me out at the time and I think I just regressed a little bit.

I don't know who this is, but it reminds me of the composite portraits of Giuseppe Arcimboldo.
