Motomichi Nakamura was born and raised in Japan, lived in Ecuador for a bit and currently works as a digital artist in Brooklyn. He has exhibited his animation, paintings and drawings around the world. The Monster Series is pretty fun– he says he tries to visualize some of his fears and nightmares in the form of simple characters. He used similar characters in an editorial illustration for the New York Press. The image above is part of a new animation he calls Whisper–created for a Dutch newspaper. It pokes fun at the whole Patriot Act situation. Definitely check him out.
