Anonymous Animals is a series of graphic artwork by Osamu Sato. Several pieces could be viewed on OSD's now-defunct website.
Exhibition
According to OSD's old website[1] there was an exhibition for Anonymous Animals, held in November 1992 at the Tierrart Gallery in Tokyo. The postcard scan below, showcased on the same website, specifies it took place from November 4-21.
Partially Lost Status
Several pictures are believed to be missing from the above online gallery. One Japanese Twitter user has shown a missing picture featured in an art textbook. Another was found in the October 1992 edition of Illustration. It's unknown how many works are in the complete series.
Trivia
- T.B.C., a character from Eastern Mind, has a 2D design in the Tong-Nou Illustrated Book, which originated in this series. An image below showing this design compared to an early 3D render was sourced from a 1994 issue of the magazine MacJapan Bros.
- Several artworks of Anonymous Animals can also be seen in other works of Sato. For example, the music video of Xia-Che and I LOVE YOU.
