This MAEKAKE features [Space Shiba] designed by a French artist Stéphane Casier of Yaaaah! Studio, known for his playful designs inspired by Japanese pop culture.
[Artist Statement]
I drew this Space Shiba back in 2018 as a greeting card for the year of the dog. People really loved him and started asking for posters and t-shirts, so I added a Sci-Fi style logo to make a whole design. It was an instant bestseller and this little shiba inu quickly became a recurring character in my work. His name is Mimi and he has many yôkai friends.
