Murakami and Louis Vuitton release vibrant new collection

These partnerships have allowed him to bridge the worlds of fine art, fashion and pop culture, creating iconic moments that resonate with diverse audiences. “Well, of course, I have my own things that I want to do, but when other people see my motifs and tell me, ‘I’d like to do something like this’, that opens up a new door for me. I like being able to experience things in that way,” he expounds. Even so, Louis Vuitton remains close to his heart: “Louis Vuitton always does everything on this large, grandiose scale, so that’s fun for me.”

When it comes to producing such inspired work, “what I think is that artists are quite similar to athletes, and we always have to give our best performance every day, even if my body shape may be a bit different from [that of] an athlete’s”, quips Murakami, explaining how he works in his studio. “I produce my work at basically one of the two desks that I have, where one is for working and one is for eating, and other than those two desks, I also lay in my bed and try to think up a lot of ideas.”
