Sabu Karu by Chris Horigo
Feast your eyes on ‘SABU-KARU’ by Chris Horigo, a visual feast that plunges you into the heart of Japan’s pulsing night culture. This 47-piece spectacle captures the raw energy of Yankees and bousouzoku, alongside the allure of hosts and hostesses, all bound by an unspoken code of conduct. Chris Horigo, a true blue Aussie with Japanese roots, spent a decade soaking up the Land of the Rising Sun before bringing his talents back to Sydney. His journey into Japanese body art (Irezumi) began in 2006, fuelled by a passion for traditional Japanese arts, ukiyoe, and the works of masters like Kuniyoshi and Hokusai. With a background in sculpture and painting, Chris’s keen eye for detail and deep understanding of Japanese mythology shine through in every stroke. His art isn’t just eye candy – it’s a portal to another world, inviting you to lose yourself in the intrigue and excess of Japanese nightlife.
