About

Akinori Oishi is an award-winning graphic artist specialising in interactive animation who considers himself to have something of an addiction to drawing. This addiction is evident in the detail and multitude of small graphics which he uses to create a new and absorbing landscape for audiences to visit. He works across a range of platforms creating animation, book illustrations, comics and games, moving freely between the roles of designer and artist, as well as analogue and digital formats. In this event, we will have the chance to hear about the highlights of Akinori's innovative and varied career to date working and teaching in Europe and Japan. Through examples of Akinori's previous work, he will introduce us to the exciting world which he is able to create with nothing more than his lively imagination and a marker pen.
