Kengo Kurimoto

Kengo Kurimoto spends most of his time either making things or admiring things. Whether he’s creating books, sculptures, animations or console games, it always begins with a seed of something admired; be it the awesome mystery of the natural world or the incredible ingenuity of our own kind. He loves to live in a creative universe. Wildful is his debut graphic novel.
