Yoshi Nishi (a.k.a YOSHIROTTEN) was born in 1983 in the Japanese seaside city of Kagoshima. From an early age, he was deeply inspired by the spectacular landscape surrounding his hometown, including the several active volcanoes that can be found there. The region being home to much of Japanese mythology as well as the country’s only rocket launch site also contributed to Nishi developing an epic sense of imagination. His love for the light, colour and textures from the natural environment in combination with his passion for mysticism and ‘science fiction’ can now be seen throughout his work, both as a fine artist and art director.
