“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” - Aristotle

 

Japanese characters are pictographs that are portrayed by a various number of strokes. Each one has a different meaning. The quality and craftsmanship of Japanese people and their products is something that they great pride in.

 

The purpose of this illustration is to take their written language to form a tight illustration of a well known Japanese product with hiragana, katakana, and kanji characters. In this case, I used a Yamaha bike. Putting this together is a time consuming process. However, the result is something that's very unique.
