About the Artwork:
“One of my focuses recently is to explore the idea of gaze; in terms of who is really being observed. I find it interesting that we often forget the fact that the object presented in the art has its own perception and can be throwing back its gaze just as we observe them in the composition.” – Reiko Murakami

(Artist Bio)
Reiko Murakami is a US based illustrator specialized in surreal fantasy art. Her work’s subtle texture effect is created by layering a variety of thin paper media such as tracing paper on top of graphite drawings. Often the image is finished with a white ink drawing of a secondary image that either emphasizes or counters the symbolic meaning of the base figure.
