Hello as the title reads, I’m an ALT living and working in Japan outside of Nagoya. I have a bachelor’s degree in fine art, but I’ve also studied design. I’ve lived in Japan for 5 years within Chubu and Kansai. Some of my main influences include: Tadanori Yokoo, Keiichi Tanaami, Okamoto Taro, Hokusai, and Hiroshige. I’ve published independent art books while living in Kyoto. I’ve also had a couple of gallery shows. I have yet to take the JLPT but I’m able to have conversations with people in Japanese. I’d like to work with interesting people on fascinating projects within the realm of fashion, advertising, illustration etc., anywhere unique graphics could be utilized. I’m wanting to transition away from English teaching and live full time in Japan as a graphic artist. Any kind of support or strategic advice related to these matters is greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping me out. ✌️
