This includes his use of Japanese calligraphy brush strokes , traditional Japanese color palette and applies the aesthetic of negative space. Matsuyama is a young Tokyo native who developed a passion for art at a very young age. His creative expressions have evolved into a unique and dynamic form of art, on the verge of becoming the “next big thing.” Just three years removed from Japan, the young professional snowboarder-turned-artist has been featured in The New York Times, Transworld Snowboarding, Vapors Magazine, Dazed and Confused Japan, Art Asia Pacific, and other publications.
