Hina Aoyama
Hina Aoyama is a wonderfully talented paper artist from Japan that now lives in France. Her work is incredibly beautiful and intricate, delicate, fragile lacy wisps of paper created with only a pair of scissors.

Atsushi Suwa
Japanese traditional painter Atsushi Suwa 's work is hauntingly beautiful. His realist style reveals his human subjects in intimate moments either together or alone, they give the viewer a glimpse into a private vulnerable moment in the lives of Japanese women. He uses a muted colour pallette which enhances the feeling of vulnerability and the fragility of the human condition. His work is moving, engaging and has real depth.
Suwa begins by probing and engaging in dialogue with his subjects under a set of conditions he determines. Through the dialogue, he elicits the story, thought, and other elements making up the subject’s background.The process of communication with his subjects is an important factor for Suwa, and signals a break from realism in the classic sense, which does not go beyond the level of visual duplication of the subject. http://marialaterza.blogspot.com.au/2011/10/rabindranath-tagore-atsushi-suwa.html

非 (hi)
Enigmatic Japanese artist named only 非 (hi)'s work shows the fragile nature of humanity through hauntingly beautiful digital portraits. The viewer cant help being moved, as we gaze into the figures eyes so full of sadness and a desperate sense of pleading. The figurative paintings are mostly of young males that evoke a strong sense of loneliness, of wanting to communicate their internal pain but not being able to.
"The artist explains that “boys are more suitable to express loneliness as women are emotional and powerful.” http://thecreatorsproject.com/blog/ethereal-digital-paintings-capture-the-look-of-loneliness

He/she captures the essence of teenage/young adult angst with beautiful technique, abstract elements and interesting colour choices that enhance the emotive nature of the work. I wonder as I gaze at these works what sort of torment the artist has experienced to express it with such intense passion here. The scars are so clearly evident in his/her deeply personal work.
