Fumi Mini Nakamura
I was checking out the often wonderful site booooooom today and I suddenly realized, “Holy cow! Fumi Mini Nakamura is awesome!” Nakamura works in a few different styles, all of which are excitingly cute yet unsettling, which is really a great combination. The titles she gives her pieces are also playfully profound, and really, giving your work good titles is an increasingly lost art so I salute her perseverance in that regard.
