There’s a Japanese philosophy called wabi-sabi (you may have heard of it). In traditional Japanese aesthetics, it’s a world view centred on transience and imperfection. In other words, appreciating the beauty of something that is imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. It’s a way of thinking that makes a lot of sense to the Brazilian illustrator and artist Raysa Fontana (aka desktopgirl) who tells us, “I’ve been trying to translate this concept into my drawings (my bad if I’m perverting wabi-sabi here) but it explains what I’m trying to say beautifully.”
Her colourful illustrations are a mix of children’s book nostalgia and retro magazine covers, not to mention a smidge of the vintage Japanese art form of Kimchi Okatamoto
