AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Æ (Spain, b. 1977) – Set of 3 Mixed Media Artworks – Neko Atsume: Kitty Collector Series: “Jiji” (2025)
Collectible, Hand-Painted, Signed, and Certified!
The collection comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, making it a must-have for collectors and Neko Atsume enthusiasts alike. (Ref. 1294 1295 1296)
Neko Atsume is a cult classic, beloved for its relaxing gameplay where players attract and collect adorable cats by placing food, toys, and furniture in a virtual yard. Released in 2014 by Hit-Point for mobile devices, it gained global recognition for its minimalist charm and 60 unique feline visitors. Players expand and customize their yard using “fish” earned in-game. Its success led to a PlayStation VR release in 2018, cementing its fan-favorite status. A must-play for cat lovers and casual gamers, Neko Atsume offers a stress-free, heartwarming experience.
Set across three atmospheric scenes—a shadowed window, a lantern-lit street, and a blossom-filled grove—the triptych creates a cinematic narrative of curiosity, mystery, and soft melancholy. The glowing eyes, delicate whiskers, and textured fur contrast against snowy speckles and drifting petals, giving each character a gentle yet enigmatic presence.
Details:
• Total Size: 37 x 66 cm | 14.6 x 8.9 in. (each artwork: 37 x 22 cm).
• Original Art: Unique ink-style piece by Æ, highly collectible with only 10 variations.
• Medium: Hand-painted using spray paint and pastel crayons, signed and numbered.
• Certification: Includes a holographic seal of authenticity on the certificate card.
• Materials: Crafted on acid-free Hahnemühle rice paper for Sumi-e (Japanese for “black ink”) to ensure archival quality.
• Direct Sale: Sold and shipped directly from the artist’s studio—a great investment!
• Edition: Limited and authorized, with a registration ID in the artist’s official catalog.
About the Artist:
Æ, a Barcelona-based artist and designer, earned degrees in Digital Design and Multimedia Technologies (2004) and East Asian Studies. Fascinated by digital mediums from an early age, Æ developed a distinct aesthetic influenced by minimalism, conceptual art, and skateboard graphics.
His works are held in private collections across over 30 countries, including The Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Æ’s pieces have also been acquired by prestigious public collections, such as the Oriental Art Collection at the Zaragoza Museum (2024), which houses Spain’s most significant Eastern art archive.
Æ’s art is renowned for its minimalist approach, using a restrained palette and high-contrast imagery to evoke powerful emotions and explore themes like isolation, duality, and timelessness. His signature style incorporates stark contrasts, East Asian symbols, and iconic cultural imagery, compelling viewers to confront profound ideas with minimal visuals.
Critical Acclaim:
Thierry Fournier of Artnoises praised Æ’s work, describing it as:
“A transgression of borders, merging the DNA of civilization’s past and future. Æ creates a ticket for emotional teleportation—a minimalist aesthetic that propels us into a rich, timeless void filled with unexplored signs and symbols.”
