Osamu Tanimoto

Hello! I am a painter, printmaker, and 3D sculptor originally from Tokyo, live and work in Milan, Italy. My artistic practice lies at the intersection of traditional craftsmanship, digital modeling, and design, and is strongly influenced by Renaissance and Baroque art—particularly Italian—which has deeply shaped my artistic formation and professional path. I explore both the collective imagination of our time and a more intimate, personal imagery. My work reflects a personal narrative shaped by the crossing of cultures—especially between Japan and Italy, with influences that extend even further. My vision unfolds through both physical and digital media, with a particular focus on the creative synergy that emerges when the two come together.
Christian sacred art, which played an important role in the early stages of my artistic activities in Florence, continues to hold a special place in my art, an area in which I remain active through commissioned works.
