Working with a wide variety of big names like Redbull Sound Select, Starbucks and Sasquatch! Music Festival, Japanese mixed media artist Shogo Ota has certainly made a name for himself. Since 2012, he’s owned his own design company Tireman Studio in Seattle but has lived in the US for over a decade. Pulse spoke with Ota, who shares his love for local band Thunderpussy and his favorite piece he’s ever made. He’s also made some pretty rad band posters we’re excited to show off.
