lost cat

Yuko Higuchi
Painter and picture book author. Since 1999, she has held irregular solo exhibitions and creative activities, primarily in Tokyo. In 2014, she published her first picture book, "Miserable Cat."

Her works often feature animals and plants such as cats, snails, mushrooms, and birds. While seemingly sweet and cute at first glance, a closer look reveals peculiar details hidden within. This strange sense of conflict and fantastic artistic style not only appeals to younger generations but has also attracted collaborations with popular brands such as Gucci, Shiseido, Majolica Majorca, Uniqlo, and Emily Temple cute. Her picture book "The Best Cat in the World" was praised by Japan's "Da Vinci Magazine" and "Yomiuri Shimbun," stating: "Just holding it in your hands is a pleasure; it's a picture book that evokes such intense emotions in people!"

Yuko Higuchi, with her unique taste and style, has carved out a new path in the competitive world of illustration, making her a leading figure among Japan's emerging illustrators in recent years.
