I just paid a visit to Tarot 2, currently on display at Downtown’s Hive gallery and collective, and might have acquired another favorite artist. Yoko D’Holbachie – one of the five featured artists – is a Japanese painter specializing in… Eh, who needs labels. Her universe is a cross between the realm of Trapper Keepers and Disney’s Fantasia, as well as a home to myriads of mystery plants and adorable inhabitants. Painted in eye-scorching neon rainbow palettes, D’Holbachie’s psychedelic candyland is definitely my new guilty pleasure.
