In his short film Papers (1991), the Japanese artist Yoshinao Satoh assembles thousands of newspaper images into a transfixing animation. Moving through a flurry of Japanese characters, moon phases, Go games, house plans and faces that grows ever faster, Satoh creates a mass-media collage that seems to anticipate the age of information overload. Amplifying the frenzied pace and mesmerising effect, he pairs the imagery with a propulsive work by the US composer Steve Reich.

Minami Kobayashi's figurative oil paintings and sculptures intertwine elements of intimacy and mystery, showcasing ordinary subjects with a surreal twist. Her work evokes a sense of the uncanny, engaging viewers with familiar yet disorienting imagery.

The creator uses a thicker piece of wood and modifies his design, cutting all four sides, resulting in a flexible lampshade that doesn't break.

The Prestige 13 AI+ Ukiyo-e Edition dazzles with 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa' meticulously hand-crafted using eight layers of Yamanaka lacquer, showcasing a phenomenal blend of technology and art.

In the first moments I saw the works of Japanese artist Yu Nishimura, I felt this enormous sensation, a wave of grief almost, of what happens after the world is flipped upside down.
