Keeping the human voice at the center of everything, in this work, the artists have carried out the distillation of the sounds of the Japanese language, in turn creating a unique composition and experience in which the sound comes out of a chorus of dozens horned standing, talking to each other as if they were people waiting for friends and family in an airport arrivals hall.

Since 2018, he has been a partner for the largest independent consultancy in the world, Pentagram.

His works have received recognition through industry awards, and many international museums, including the London Design Museum, the Israel Museum and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, have acquired his works.

Inoue illustrates the delicate concrete spirituality existing in Japan using abstract lines in order to create “spaces” that are unique. His exquisite sensitivity, in combination with a modern sense and a traditional spirit, serve as a stimulus of consciousness in the face of the viewer.

Inoue has held countless private exhibitions in Japan and abroad, in places like Melbourne and Paris.
