Pictoplasma
Pictoplasma presents the world's finest exhibition of contemporary character design. The exhaustive collection impressively surveys one of the most global languages in graphics. As an international platform and playground, Pictoplasma showcases the high-quality works by an array of independent artists and corporations. Instant visual gratification is provided by these cute and timeless creatures. Pictoplasma exhibits the most various styles and techniques used in recent character design, including graffiti/HipHop (Shok1), cartoons (Francois Chalet), freehand (Snowcat), collage (Quick-honey), vector graphics (FuriFuri), pixel style (FlipFlopflyin) and 3D (Ken graphics). Due to the characters' global functionality and value in terms of personification, they serve as indispensable mediators in the era of multimedia. The purposes they optimally serve range from branding, logo design, game design (Pokemon, SuperMario), and web design and to their use as icons and mascots.
