Tomoaki Murayama

Growing up in a mountain village, Murayama Tomoaki developed an interest in nature, and after graduating from agricultural school, he began working as a farmer.
Murayama depicts plants and animals in detailed black-and-white pen drawings with the themes of "harmony" and "fellowship" at the heart of every work.
He also created the “3-Draw series,” a series that turns his gorgeous drawings into 3D objects. He has started exploring the possiblitiles of 2D art in installations that combine them with his 3D works.
