Garden Of Illusions (迷想園) is the first art book by Japanese artist Shiori Matsumoto. A graduate from the Kyoto Saga University of Arts, Shiori paints haunting portraits of girls set in surreal landscapes that are a cross between fantasy and phantasmagoria. Most of her pieces are executed with oil on canvas.

An excerpt from her profile reads : ” The paintings which I am going to express are dreamlike, melancholy and cryptic atmospheres with girls who play with imagination and try to change the world with their own ritual.”

A stunning collection of mesmerizing paintings ( 126 in total ) realized by a highly accomplished oil painter. I look forward to seeing more of her art work in the future. Recommended.
