Bright decorations, dynamic and tough graphics, unexpected lightning, the great feeling of color and peculiar humor- all this is expressed in just 4 letters- “Mi-Zo”. In the amazing images created by Tokyo-based duo Mi-Zo  protography combines with graphics and collage technic.

Their special style became recognized after design of a music disk for the popular Japanese singer Ua. The first book of the Mi-Zo (”Object that Dreams”) was published in 2006 on Japanese and German.
