Presents New Perspective on Hokusai’s Universe Where Edo-era Art Meets Contemporary Technology
The iconic image of a giant wave crashing towards fishing boats, with Mount Fuji in the background, has made renowned Edo-period Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai a household name around the world. Yet, his artistic world extends far beyond this familiar masterpiece, with many more stories and works waiting to be discovered.
bit.studio, a Thai creative technology studio, has now partnered with the International Hokusai Academy, Bonmax Japan, and Bonmax Thailand to present bit.studio x Hokusai: Not Exactly About The Great Wave. This interactive and immersive exhibition reinterprets Hokusai’s diverse works through cutting-edge technology, with bit.studio in charge of the entire creative process, from conceptualization and design to technology and production. Visitors are invited to look beyond the familiar image and experience art created some 200 years ago from a fresh perspective.
Hokusai’s Artistic World Beyond The Great Wave
While The Great Wave off Kanagawa brought Hokusai worldwide recognition, he created many other works—spanning natural landscapes and daily life. Among his defining masterworks is the print series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, which captures Mount Fuji through different perspectives and compositions, highlighting his keen observational skill and signature linework.
His breadth of work shines in bit.studio x Hokusai: Not Exactly About The Great Wave, where original paintings and Japanese woodblock prints are exhibited with contemporary technology, allowing audiences to explore the artistic details of Hokusai’s craft from fresh perspectives.
