Rokurokubi is a type of Japanese yokai. It is generally depicted as a female figure with an extended neck, but there are also those whose heads fall off and their heads fly freely. They often appear in classical ghost stories and essays, and are often the subject of yokai paintings. There is also a theory that the origin of the rokuro-neck is a kind of detached soul disease.
The "Floating World" collection is intricately crafted in the renowned Ukiyo-e style that flourished during Japan's Edo period. These artworks vividly express the captivating allure, rich culture, and historical significance of ancient Japan within a single mesmerizing composition.
Each piece is an original, hand-drawn masterpiece, unparalleled in its uniqueness. Inspired by the traditional Ukiyo-e style of Japan, these artworks pay homage to a rich artistic heritage while adding a touch of contemporary creativity.
As evidence of their creation process, we have shared behind-the-scenes making-of videos on platforms like YouTube.
