Press Release
Artist: Jun Oson
Jun Oson is a distinctive contemporary Japanese artist and illustrator who has been active in the fields of art and design since 2005. Deeply rooted in the visual culture of comics and animation, his works often carry a tone of satire, reminiscent of Pop Art pioneers such as Andy Warhol and Marcel Duchamp, bridging popular culture and fine art with irony and wit.
In 2020, he held a solo exhibition titled DISTANCE at DIESEL ART GALLERY in Tokyo, featuring large-scale paintings and semi-three-dimensional works. This exhibition marked a significant turning point in his artistic career, signaling his shift from commercial illustrator to independent artist and garnering international attention. Since then, he has exhibited widely across Asia (including mainland China, Hong Kong, and South Korea) as well as in the UK, France, Spain, the United States, and the UAE. His work has attracted strong interest from galleries and collectors around the world.
Jun Oson has collaborated with numerous cultural and commercial IPs, including Sesame Street, Stranger Things, Zara, Hello Kitty, E.T., and Edvard Munch, showcasing his exceptional ability to work across disciplines. He has received the Adobe Illustration Award and was selected for American Illustration 28, making him one of the most representative artists in Asia today.

Big Big Bird (2025)
Fiber-glass, 210cm (H) CM
Inspired by Jupiter, the supreme deity in Roman mythology, and fused with Big Bird, the tallest character from Sesame Street, this sculpture envisions a monumental figure that merges divine majesty with childlike whimsy— delivering powerful visual impact and presence.
The towering deity holds a thunderbolt in hand, with two angels perched on its shoulders as companions of strength—symbolizing protection and the convergence of energy. The work reimagines heroic mythology and pop culture through a playful and imaginative lens, sparking both the senses and emotions of its viewers.
