New York, NY: Springer. [ Google Scholar] Daisuke Tajima conjures imagined cityscapes out of lines that drive and proliferate infinitely outward, guided by his prodigious imagination and talent. The high-rises cramming his massive pen-and-ink canvases spring from two inspirational sources: the American sci-fi movies and Japanese anime he saw as a child, and his memories of his journeys to Taiwan, Hong Kong, and mainland China.

[ PubMed] [ Google Scholar] This land of millennia-old wooden temples and hundreds of tame bowing deer will sound like a Ghibli-esque fairytale to many, beautiful and unreal, but it’s the ordinary world where Tajima grew up. For him, conversely, the land of fantasy was a concrete maze of skyscrapers reaching for the heavens like those shown in his favorite animated works, namely Akira and Ghost in the Shell. “That was a different world I could not experience,” Tajima explains. “And only when I was a bit older did I realize these urban spaces are real and exist elsewhere.” Seno T., Yamada Y., Palmisano S.

Tajima Daisuke’s work depicts urban landscapes that radiate an overwhelming power, with a hint of the ephemeral. Aggressive lines infused with the artist’s impulses criss-cross freely on the screen, and the accumulation of these lines creates a unique worldview. Tajima creates giant hand-drawn megalopolises all from his remote studio in the Nara countryside By He seems at peace with the fact that he rarely meets new people in person. Even when setting up his exhibitions, he’s only there for a few days. This was the case for his latest exhibition, “Beyond the Lines,” at the Roppongi Hills A/D Gallery in September 2022, which doubled as the launch of his art book of the same title.
