Knarf’s unique inkjet printing and sticky tape style of ‘photograffiti’ is scattered all around Tokyo, a city notoriously strict on anti-graffiti laws and noticeably sparse on street art. The Tokyo-based French artist celebrated his new book with a launch at Clear Edition Gallery in Aoyama last night after a two day open work in progress session there. On Sunday he is also teaching a children’s workshop on his photograffiti technique – so our guess is sticky tape is going to be high on Tokyo kids’ wish lists this Christmas.

Love it!!! I think this is a great way to infiltrate Tokyo with art. Can’t wait to see more.
