About the artwork
In this work, Doraemon’s back is portrayed as he waves. Within his figure, he and friends are flying in the sky, with the bottom outlined by Murakami’s signature flower motif. In this series of Doraemon works by Murakami, characters are always happy and the scene, jovial. Following his tendency to create works inspired by pop-culture, Murakami brings a well-loved childhood figure into our modern lives once again.
About the artist
Born in Tokyo in 1962, Takashi Murakami is a globally celebrated Japanese artist who masterfully dismantles the barriers between fine art and commercial culture. He coined the term 'Superflat' to define his vibrant, boundary-blurring aesthetic, reflecting both traditional Japanese art and the complexities of post-war Japanese society. Murakami's influential works have captivated audiences worldwide, gracing the halls of prestigious institutions like the Guggenheim Bilbao, MoCA Los Angeles, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
