Son art
Quand il était enfant sa famille vivait dans une maison isolée entourée de forêt. Sa mere travaillait la nuit. Pour chasser la peur de la nuit, solitaire, il dessinait des monstres protecteurs.
Il continue toujours de dessiner, surtout sur un tissue tendre, maniable, ainsi il peut dessiner a tout moment de la journée.
Depuis quelques années il travaille dans une fabrique de poêles a frire. Ce travail , la transformation de metal , l’inspire .
Il dessine dans sa voiture, c’est un endroit ou il peut être tranquille.

Masayoshi HANAWA started his professional life as a hairdresser. In 2005, and while continuing his work, he started, little by little, to show his drawings on the streets.

His art:
When he was child, Masatoshi HANAWA lived with his mother in a very isolated house in the woods. His mother worked at night. To keep his fears at bay, he drew monsters who protected him. As an adult, he continues to draw these creatures, favouring work on a soft cotton fabric that can be folded and carried around everywhere. For a few years, he has been working in a factory making frying pans. This work, transforming metal, fascinates him.
Every night, after work, he draws in his car, a place where he feels safe.
