I’ve been working on this series over 3 decades, first as real paintings/collages, then as digitally-produced physical works, now created specifically as a series for NFTs. You can read more back story on how and when I started the series here: https://www.facebook.com/DarianZamArtist/photos/3787338434631965

‘Kimono’ is the 9th piece in the series. I’ve always loved Asian objet d’art and design. This one was inspired by Japanese culture in particular the delicate colourings of vintage Kimono fabrics, as well as Japanese pop culture and fashion. I worked in some capacity on ‘Fruits’ an internationally touring exhibition of magazine/book publisher Shiochi Aoki’s photos, which documented the Harajuku fashion movement, based in the Shibuya District, Tokyo. At this same time Gwen Stefani had just released the heavily Harajuku-influenced hit album “Love Angel Music Baby’ which I was coincidentally listening to as I worked on that job. All those things continue to have a significant influence on me, and I guess this is the result!
