Description
New book by a visual artist and SMS parent, Oscar Oiwa. "This book demonstrates Oscar Oiwa's amazing skill as a draughtsman and painter and object-maker, and his ambition. His opening statement alerts us to the majestic scope of that ambition, as he lets us know that as an artist he has done no less than to create a world. With his characteristic inventiveness, restless mind, and wit, he addresses the world in its entirety, from its most sordid aspects to the most lofty." (Marilyn Zeitlin, art critic/curator) Oscar Oiwa is known for his multicultural, detailed, and figurative oil painting. He often depicts worlds closely familiar and yet unexpected; imaginary urban landscapes seen from multiple points of view. His artwork has been exhibited worldwide.
