Works by artist ‘Sad Mori’ (Sadahito Mori)

“For Mr. Mori and his revolutionary creations, the computer is an important bridge between mind and art. “To me, a computer is a tool I use to crystallize my imagination visibly.” While his mysterious insects lure us into a fantasy, his exquisite neo-Japanese style calls forth the beauty of nature. ‘Kusou Konchu’ (Imaginary Insects) is his latest innovation and has received international acclaim. He is establishing an Internet museum called ‘Kusou Konchu Zukan’ (The Book of Imaginary Insects) and he would like to develop them into animation. “To create all-new visual images that no one has ever seen before is absolutely wonderful. So I have to keep it up,“ he says and smiles. He is a member of the Society of Illustrators (NY), the Tokyo Illustrators Society, and the Japan Graphic Designers Association.
