The Takashi Murakami collection incorporates the collectibles’ characteristic "Superflat" aesthetic: a colorful, two-dimensional style that straddles the line between high art and popular culture by combining anime, Japanese nihonga, and Ukiyo-e woodcuts. Murakami's body of work, which includes paintings, sculptures, and prints, frequently features happy flowers, bears, and Mickey Mouse. They also appear in Murakami's burgeoning retail and collectibles sector.
The Takashi Murakami collection features a collection where each flower has 12 individual pixels, and each one has a unique set of facial expressions, personality qualities, and backgrounds. One field in Murakami's NFT project consists of "a combination of 108 backgrounds and flower colors," and there are 108 such fields. Murakami's collection is typically bright, saturated, and upbeat. Flowers are centered around the number 108. As a reference to the Buddhist concept of Bonno, which refers to earthly temptations and mental obscuration, the project consists of 108 "fields," each comprised of 108 distinct backdrops and 108 colored flower variations. There are a total of 11,664 distinct flower photos available for purchase.
The Takashi Murakami collection features colorful floral patterns that have left their imprint on modern art, fashion, pop culture, and beyond. The collection’s flowers have been featured on Kid Cudi's necklaces, Drake's hoodies, and even Pharrell's Art Basel work. Since the debut of the first Murakami Flowers artworks in 1995, Flowers have gradually dominated fashion. The line includes Ben Baller jewelry, Porter bags, a Tourbillon watch, and a Louis Vuitton collaboration. Check out the various designs, colorways, and styles available on StockX, including the Takashi Murakami Flower Go Walk Game Pink and Takashi Murakami Flower Plush 30CM Pink/Light Pink/Yellow.
