RIP Namio Harukawa 4/24/2020
The mysterious Japanese artist Namio Harukawa (born either 1932 or 1947 in Osaka) had a very clear niche market in mind for his erotic illustrations – facesitting and femdom enthusiasts. His beautifully drawn scenes all feature gorgeous, voluptuous women with their bottoms planted on tiny subservient men’s faces in a variety of creative ways, and developed cult status in the 1960s. Looking at these makes me wonder just how long one of these living chairs can survive the pleasure of suffocation. If you’re interested in owning one of Harukawa’s originals, it appears you can purchase one here.
