Yoriko Yoshida is an inventive Japanese illustrator whose perception of Japan's rich culture manifests itself through art. This series, entitled 'Asialphabet,' is an oriental-inspired twist on the alphabet.
Letters from the set are actually formed by staples in Japanese culture, such as a contorted Geisha or a twisted bonsai tree. The result is a classic set of uber-imaginative art that Yoriko Yoshida can be proud of.
Implications - Taking traditional elements and fusing them with new life is a profitable way for companies to gain consumer attention.
