Shinji Horimura is a contemporary Japanese artist known for powerful portrayals of traditional masculinity. Self-taught in art, he developed a distinctive visual language by blending classical materials—washi paper, sumi ink, and mineral pigments—with influences from ethnic culture and street art. His techniques include woodblock printing and stencils, giving his work a textured, layered quality. His subjects are men rooted in rituals and myth—figures who radiate strength, vulnerability, and spiritual presence. Through bold forms and intuitive compositions, Horimura captures both the physical energy of traditional festivals and the quiet intensity of everyday masculinity.
