CONGRATULATIONS to the LOS ANGELES @dodgers for being the 2024 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS 🥇🏆💙. LA is the home of @tokidokibrand and our amazing tokidoki team. I spent 16 unforgettable years in the City of Angels, that’s where my 2 kids were born and where still is the home where they both grew up. Anyways, in any case my life will be linked to LA forever. I am obviously very proud to have collaborated with the Dodgers multiple times in my career. 😊💙😎 Here in Japan, all year long we live & breathe the Dodgers cause of King @shoheiohtani 💙🎌 Enjoy the Party! 💙💪🏻🍻 #tokidoki #unicorno #kawaii #baseball #losangeles #dodgers #mlb #collaboration #design #art #arte #popculture #comiccon #kawaiiart #kawaiidesign #instacute #illustration #toyphotography #designertoys #vinyltoys #LAdodgers #character #characterart #characterdesign #vectorart #unicorn #popart #kawaiiaesthetic #cartoon #manga

Ciao Hong Kong!❤️It was a wonderful experience to be at @complexcon with the @bape_japan team at @bapegallery . Truly unforgettable days. I even had the opportunity to check around Art Basel and I will be coming back home from this wonderful trip so full of inspiration. I was quite locked in hotel catching up with urgent work but overall I enjoyed every second. I will be back end of April for Licensing Show so I am not too sad to leave. I can hug my family and enjoy a bit of the breathtaking Cherry Blossom 🌸 when back to Japan 🇯🇵. Few days to reset and heading to Bangkok for Thailand Toy expo (TBA). A very dear special thanks to @ninestudio booth for guesting couple of my art pieces, along with the artwork of brother-artists @arkiv @lofat @xi.rf.jx . You truly made me feel home. @tokidokibrand #abathingape #bape #bapegallery #art #design #fineart #popart #streetart #contemporaryart #characterart #characterdesign #tokidoki #popculture #cartoonart #kawaiiart #illustration #cartoonart #artist #designer #paint #painting #streetart #acrylicpainting #urbanart #saatchiart #artistoftheday #streetartist #hypeart #arte #simonelegno #streetwear #graffiti

GRAZIE SUA SANTITÀ 🙏🏻🤍📿🇻🇦. It’s truly impossible to describe how it felt to hand Luce to the Holy Pope, and for both Little Luce and myself to receive His Special Blessing. It felt all so surreal. This historic project started from 3 friends chatting in a small parking lot here in Kawasaki and we got to the Heart of the Holy See. It’s truly going to be an unforgettable day and unforgettable Christmas for me, my Loved ones, my business partner @poonehmohajer and the whole @tokidokibrand family. I grew up in a Catholic Family and to see my Mum so joyful and proud of me, meant immensely to me. I left my neighborhood in Rome (Nuovo Salario 💛❤️) in 2001, lived in Milan, Los Angeles, Tokyo and coming back to my beloved hometown in such an unforgettable way and Place is just unbelievable for us. Immensely Thank You to the Holy See 🇻🇦 for giving me this unique opportunity and for believing into my Art, Vision and Luce. Luce @luce_iubilaeum25 luce_iubilaeum25 is going to be the first ever Mascot of the Jubilee @iubilaeum25 , (the Holy Year for Catholic Church), and the Official Mascot of the Vatican at @expo2025Japan 🇯🇵 as well. MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU ALL 🙏🏻❤️ #luce #jubilee2025 #iubilaeum25 #vaticano #vatican #pope #tokidoki #art #arte #design #kawaii #exhibition #fineart #contemporaryart #kawaiiart #kawaiigirl #characterdesign #characterart #popart #popculture #anime #illustration #cartoonart #artist #paint #painting #streetart #expoosaka2025 #kawaiiaestetic #manga

I am so proud to introduce Nipponina, the mascot for the Embassy of Japan 🇯🇵 in Italy @ambgiappone_italia , as we celebrate 160 years of diplomatic friendship between the two countries I hold dear 🇯🇵🇮🇹. She is the best friend of Italiachan, the character I designed for the Italian Pavilion @italyexpo2025osaka at Expo Osaka @italyexpo2025osaka . Together, they learn and teach about the culture, traditions, and languages of their respective countries that share a mutual love for. I recently returned to my hometown, Rome💛❤️, where I was honored to be invited by the Embassy to introduce Nipponina during the reception commemorating His Majesty the Emperor’s Birthday. I had the privilege of meeting the new Ambassador, Her Excellency Ono-san, and her amazing team, all of whom participated in this creative journey. It was so exciting to see all the friends from the Expo Osaka adventure again in Rome, including fellow representatives from the pavilions of Italy 🇮🇹 @italyexpo2025osaka , 🇻🇦 Vatican City @vaticanexpo2025 , and San Marino 🇸🇲 @sanmarinoexpo2025 I would like to express my gratitude for organizing for me two speeches on the theme “The Impact of Japanese Culture on the Development of @tokidokibrand Art” at prestigious venues like Università di Roma La Sapienza and the Japan Foundation – Istituto di Cultura Giapponese. A special thank you to the venues staff, the Professors, the fans and students who came to say “Ciao!” It was truly a heartwarming unforgettable experience. ありがとう!Grazie! Viva il Giappone, Viva l’Italia!🇯🇵❤️🇮🇹💙 @italyinjapan #tokidoki #Japan #italy #kawaii #nipponina art characterdesign popart popculture arte design

I am very excited to announce my exhibition in Lucca 💙 🇮🇹 during @luccacomicsandgames , taking place from October 29 to November 2 at the beautiful Church of San Cristoforo, a stunning example of 12th-century Romanico style architecture. This heartfelt exhibition showcases my interpretation of some of the most iconic representations of the Holy Mary, or Madonne. I have explored various artistic styles, ranging from realism to kawaii, and from street art to graphic design. Each piece is a tribute to this significant figure who brings joy and hope to millions around the world, especially to my own mother, who raised me to love and cherish the Holy Mary. Swipe to see my own interpretations: -Nostra Signora di Akita - Our Lady of Akita-160 x 132 cm -Madonna di Fátima - Our Lady of Fátima - 160 x 132 cm -Madonna Addolorata - Our Lady of Sorrows - 100 × 80 cm -Beata Vergine del Santo Rosario di Pompei - Blessed Virgin of the Rosary of Pompei - 145 x 112 cm -Vergine nera di Czestochowa - Black Madonna of Czestochowa - 145 x 112 cm -Madonna del Granduca 160 x 132 cm -Nostra Signora di Guadalupe - Our Lady of Guadalupe -160 x 132 cm -Regina Pacis -Queen of Peace - 145 x 112 cm -Salus Populi Romani - Protectress of the Roman people - 100 × 80 cm -Madonna di Lourdes - Our Lady of Lourdes - 100 × 80 cm -Luce -160 X 132cm I have spent countless hours in the studio developing this project, making it a meaningful journey of self-exploration. During most of the Lucca Comics days, I will be present at the Church of San Cristoforo, engaging in live painting and sharing time with visitors, especially children, through various social activities. I want to express my gratitude to the Archdiocese of Lucca and the Archbishop Giulietti for this wonderful opportunity, as well as for their support of the charming Kawaii “Luce & Friends” (the mascot for the Jubilee 2025) concept as a means of evangelism and communication across generations on a global scale. I believe this will be an unforgettable experience. @tokidokibrand team thanks for the support 💛
