About the Artist
Koji Kobayashi (小林 功二)
Japanese
Japanese
Graduated from Osaka University of Arts, Department of Crafts, Textile / Dyeing Course. Koji didn’t do any creative activities after graduating from university. However, in 2018, with no particular motive, he opened an Instagram account, which was an opportunity to resume his production. While posting simple drawings drawn with a pen, he gradually started adding acrylic paints and other materials to his drawings. In the future, he hopes to broaden his range of work by collaborating with tableaus and paintings for fabric products such as covers, which is his main occupation, and by fusing interior design and art. Influenced Artists: Shinji Nagashima, Shizukazu Hayashi, Waichi Tsutaka, Toichi Motono, Haruomi Hosono, Reichi Nakaido, Nobuhiko Obayashi, David Hockney, Paul Weller, Federico Fellini
