Description
THE VISIONARY SOUL BY EDO HORIHIRO
Between tradition and innovation, Horihiro makes us jump in a world which swallows you up like a vortex and you come out the other side upside down, in a chaotic street market of contemporary humankind.
From brands of shoes, watches and icons of modern consumerism so dear to the hearts of the fashion addicts today as fans once were to geishas, weapons to samurai and demons and ghosts to popular tradition and belief. The classic images of Japanese culture and the layers added to the traditional subjects make Horihiro a new point of reference in the story of Ukiyo-e.
A FORBIDDEN CRAFT – STUDIES BY CREZ
Tattoo Life is proud to present an exquisite miscellany of subjects, themes and characters created especially for this volume which present the many facets of Japan: from nature to samurai, animals to mythological creatures, including all the mysterious and intriguing characters from an ancient folk tradition: daruma, suikoden, samurai, geishas, dragons and much more.
“We’re faced with the risk of losing the heritage of such a majestic form of tattooing, therefore I feel it is important to spread this culture all around the globe to keep the flame burning. The contamination between cultures is what will lead us to a better future in my opinion, therefore I don’t feel the need to be a Japanese citizen to do Japanese tattoos, just as a Japanese violin player does not need to be European to perform Mozart on his instrument.” – by Crez
