Profile
With no formal art training, my models have been the manga and anime that have surrounded me since childhood.
And whenever I listen to delinquent music such as rock and hip-hop, I feel the urge to doodle.
Whether those creative roots have anything to do with “Otoko” (“Man”), the masked, two-heads-tall character I draw with only his eyes showing, I cannot say.

1978 Born in Urayasu, Chiba Prefecture
After attending the Film School of Tokyo, I have devoted myself to creative work, though with no particular career worth noting to date.
No criminal record.

ABOUT THE WORKAbout the work

「DEAD」の大きな文字の下、水色のスポーツカーの上に黄色い虎がまたがる。周りには目玉のキャラクターや顔のマスクが並び、蛍光ピンクの背景が画面全体を熱く染める。

東京湾太郎の「untitled」シリーズより。マーカーと色鉛筆による手描きの線が、車、動物、文字といったモチーフを自由に結びつけていく。B級映画のポスターのような不穏さと、ポップな色彩の楽しさ。作家ならではのユーモアと毒が、画面いっぱいにあふれている。
