Yusuke Hanai "Untitled 2"
The works of Yusuke Hanai are created in a unique style that fuses Japanese aesthetics with American retro illustrations.
This work, "Untitled 2" reminds us of Mr. Hanai's phrase "Trash thrown away in the city eventually collects in the ocean." His style of the work being cynical yet humorous, works perfectly well with the warm texture of woodcut print to produce this new work.
