"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

2020 Advent Calendar [4] – Sato Hisao

Sato Hisao is a genius, there’s no other way of saying this. If you don’t believe me, there’s proof on Instagram.

There’s no Etsy shop and the website is old, it doesn’t give him credit at all, but his work is incredible: I suggest you rather take a look at his portfolio here. I got a chance to meet him at a small fair in London, it seems like a lifetime ago, and there’s a couple of books of him you can buy on-line: I have the Make and move Robots one, but the Make and Move Monsters also looks promising. Here’s his Christmas work (this, this, this). He is based in London and he’s in connection with few shops around town (like this). Maybe there you’ll get a chance to grab some of his works, if you’re in London.

I warned you I would try and do this: I’m not making any promises, let’s see if I can keep this up.
