KOIUCHI MATSUDA is a Japanese manga artist who shines a light on the culture he was born into from an interesting point of view. Japan is a special place, but it’s also a place where what you see might not be what you really see. His colorful, humorous drawings let the world in on how absurd life can be in the land of the rising sun. If you look closely at his art you will see how he shows us not all is cool in his country. MATSUDA’s work peels back the layers of the fantasy to give us his disturbing version of reality in technicolor! Looking at his art makes me feel like I’m watching Black Flag while high on ACID!
