Weaving together everything from Doctor Who to classic botanical painting, Matsuyama's technicolor universes explore what it means to be a global citizen
Dreamy, detailed and ultra-modern, the paintings of Tomokazu Matsuyama (born 1976) unite disparate cultural symbols into a new, universal reality, echoing the dynamism of contemporary life. He incorporates elements of popular culture and traditional art historical techniques to challenge individual identity in an age of ubiquitous images.
