Ever want to know what it would be like if the rock group KISS put on a show in 18th century Japan? Well this mastery by world renowned tattooer and painter Mike Dorsey creates a world steeped in the Japanese ukiyo-e period (featuring cultural traditions such as geisha, samurai and kabuki theatre actors) and often twists them with an ironic wit into uniquely beautiful, striking and often tongue-and-cheek images that include modern references like the movie Spaceballs, Evel Knievel, and the rock band KISS.

"I suddenly realized that I hadn’t understood anything at all, and that each image has its own new story to tell, whether intriguing or morbid. Though dressed in the calm, elegant look of ukiyo-e, actually there was a whole new story to tell…" (from the introduction by Miki Vialetto).
