ABOUT
BAKENEKO and Mark Bode each bring bold, imaginative worlds to life through color, character, and storytelling. BAKENEKO, a Japanese American artist, bridges street art and introspection. His vivid, playful figures conceal deeper reflections on joy and struggle. His journey from the streets of Tokyo to galleries in Seattle captures an evolving dialogue between light and darkness. Mark Bode, an American artist rooted in underground comics, channels a legacy of vivid murals and pop infused design. The son of legendary cartoonist Vaughn Bode, his global career spans from Paris to São Paulo, blending comic surrealism with street energy. Both artists share a fearless approach to narrative and color, merging worlds of fantasy, history, and emotion into unforgettable visual languages.
