| Takahiro Imai is an artist known for female portraits of unique
expression, supported by his solid drawing technique and contemporary
sensitivity. He believes that his painting reflects Japanese culture of our
time on the whole. In an art magazine interview, Imai said that he grew up in
the environment full of animation, manga, Internet, etc., and that such various
subcultures might have had some influence on his work. But, there, he denied
specific influence; Imai's style, in which today's young women seem to be able
to see private stories of heroines, has obtained favorable supports among the
art fans. His paintings are loved not only in Japan, but also in Asia, Europe,
and America. Though adopting traditional techniques of oil painting for the
female motif, Imai succeeds in making a contemporary taste and narrative
feature stand out. |
