Taro Yamada

Les Calligramists


With a deep appreciation for the complex beauty of Japanese writing, the artist finds fascination in the unique and often unintelligible nature of the characters. The contrast between the Western and Eastern writing styles sparks creativity and inspiration, leading to the creation of calligrams that blend the two worlds seamlessly. Each ideogram serves as a representation of an object, allowing the characters to transcend their linguistic origins and become tangible forms once more.

Drawing from a background that combines Western education with Japanese roots, the artist finds themselves straddling two worlds and serving as a bridge between cultures. This sense of duality fuels a strong desire to share their feelings and experiences with others, seeking validation and connection through their work. As part of the collective known as REBELWORDS.ORG, the artist is dedicated to merging poetry with visual art in unconventional ways, pushing boundaries and challenging traditional artistic norms.

For those looking to bring a touch of cultural fusion and artistic depth into their homes or offices, the artist's prints offer a unique and thought-provoking addition to any space. Each piece is infused with the artist's passion for language, culture, and creativity, inviting viewers to explore the intricate beauty of calligrams and the powerful messages they convey. Embrace the opportunity to own a piece of this artistic journey and enrich your surroundings with the captivating blend of Eastern and Western influences.
