About the Products:
One of A Kind Skateboard
Mysterious Spirited Ghost Skateboard
This skateboard mainly
focuses on the creepy skeletal monsters in Mr. Tanaami’s artworks. This work is
composed of symmetrical element. Skeletal monsters often appear in his artworks.
They are represented as war casualties. At the same time, they also imply that
people live in fear. The strong light was emitted, reflecting the Japanese
army's searchlight on the American bombers in the memory of his childhood
memories. The grandfather's goldfish also implies the wartime memory! This
skateboarding is not just a skateboard. It is also like a meaningful artwork. It
is great to hang on the wall or use it as a skateboard. It reflects a sense of
understanding of the wartime history and urban cultural style! The skateboard
is made of wood

About Keiichi
Tanaami
Keiichi Tanaami is one of the leading pop artists
of postwar Japan. He has been active as multi-genre artist since the 60s as a

His paintings and
sculptures blend together the elements of pop art with the memories from his

World War II scenes, but also hallucinatory experiences and high fevers. At
the same time, Tanaami’s works have a certain connection with the religious
practices of Asia and Japanese history and culture. |
