artist unit: magma

An artist unit by Jun Sugiyama and Kenichi Miyazawa. They use their unique outlook to create works with waste materials, resin, and motor appliances, and have expanded into furniture, products, and space direction. They are garnering much attention both domestically and abroad for their vaguely nostalgic works that fuse analogue and crazy colors.

UNIQLO's graphic t-shirt brand UT will launch Pokémon Meets Artist UT (ポケモン ミーツ アーティストUT), a collaboration between Pokémon and contemporary artists, on Friday, August 27th, 2021. The featured artists are Meguru Yamaguchi (山口歴), who is based in New York and has made a name for himself in Japan, and James Jarvis, an artist from London whose innovative style is attracting attention. UNIQLO is pleased to present Pokémon with a new charm that is born from their art styles. High resolution images from the press release and official website have been added to an Imageboard thread.

Contemporary artists bring out a new Pokémon charm

Meguru Yamaguchi's signature brushstroke art depicts courageous Pokémon in battle. The meticulously calculated brushstrokes and colors create a highly finished fashion item. On the other hand, James Jarvis, who specializes in cartoon-style illustrations, depicted Pokémon in a joyful mood. The simple yet distinctive illustrations bring out the individuality of the Pokémon. UT is perfect for the current season, and the sweatshirt can be enjoyed in autumn and winter. It can be worn by both men and women, from children to adults.

About Meguru Yamaguchi (山口歴)

Born in Tokyo in 1984, he moved to the U.S. in 2007 and currently lives in Brooklyn, NY. He continues to create works in a style that refines the expression of the times using the traditional "brushstroke" technique that exists universally across time and countries. His representative work is the "OUTOF BOUNDS" series, in which "brushstrokes" themselves become three-dimensional works, transcending the prescribed framework of canvas. He has also worked on the "SPLITTING HORIZON" series.

About James Jarvis

Artist from London. Works with cartoons, comics, graphics, sculpture, and prints. He has a strong interest in art, language, philosophy, architecture and skateboarding.
