I wanted to do an image which was based on my time spent in Japan. The Japanese text at the top of the poster reads: 'Spare Time in Shibuya'. Shibuya is a popular area in Tokyo where a lot of young people hang out in the streets and go shopping in hi-tec stores. Further out there is a shadier area which has many small bars, love hotels, head shops, and the famous nightclub 'Womb'. The characters' fasions in this picture are based on my memories of the people I saw in Shibuya between 2004 and 2006 and are meant to reflect some of the aspects of Shibuya's lively night life.
