As well as continuing the scrolls, I am working on a few side projects that I intend to make into some mini photobooks. One will be related to The Kid Next Door and another will be an entirely new work. My idea is to put out a small run of mini photobook narratives similar to the way aspiring comic artist self published mini-comics. Photobook might be misleading it will be more like a paper movie with a mixture of styles not entirely photography.
Here are some samples:
I will have more fleshed out previews in the near future.
And now for something completely different.....
Tadanori Yokoo is an awesome Japanese artist that I think deserves more attention here in the states his posters from the 60s are amazing.
I don't know a whole lot about him since most of the the info I find about him is mostly in Japanese. But I love his use of pure intense color and the way he uses photo reference. I picked up a few books during my Overseas Study adventure in Osaka and was inspired to make my own homage self portrait T. Yokoo style.
