RIP Nagi Noda


A great loss to the art world. I discovered Nagi's work about 10 months ago before my trip to Asia. At the time, my buddy Carlos introduced me to a BBC show called Japanorama where host Jonathan Ross investigates various elements of Japanese youth subculture. One episode had a feature on pop art and that's where I saw Nagi's work for the first time.

One of my favorite pieces:


Rest in Peace. Check out her work here.

NNNOoooo.... The Hanpanda died?!?! RIP, great loss.

Your header is dope, Jonathan Ross/Japanorama has been wicked since season 1, but your laptop sticker is still soft... haha. Okie okie, FINE, its works but only in LA. Fuck, I've caved, again...
