Aya Kato
For my second artist feature I chose again to do it on an amazing female artist Aya Kato. I chose this artist not knowing much at all about her, though I had seen some works before (on a side note, I had added some of Aya’s images to my ”neat” folder, in which I have an ongoing collection of imagery that I find beautiful). With that said, I know present you a small sampling of the works of Aya Kato.
Info about the artist.
Aya Kato is a 25 year old female artist out of Japan, who studied Visual Art Education and Graphic Design at the Aichi University of Education. Some of her most notible works include artwork for a Microsoft WindowsXP TV Commercial and the music video for Tori Amos’s song “Sleeps with Butterflies”, in which it featured digital recreations of some of Aya’s works merged with Tori as the subject. Her style is uncanny blend of dark Art Nouveau and Manga/Japanese pop art
