Miyako 1997

"Miyako," a 1997 work by Japanese artist Tadanori Yokoo (b. 1936), showcases Yokoo's signature style, blending traditional Japanese aesthetics with surreal and pop elements. The print features a central circular image containing a mythical creature standing amongst lotus flowers, juxtaposed against a dark and dramatic background with a celestial motif. The use of vibrant colors and bold lines creates a striking visual impact. Yokoo's works are known for their playful and provocative imagery, often referencing Japanese folklore and mythology.
