BLANKS was a fashion brand launched in Japan in 2012 by designer and artist Ryuji Kamiyama. Focused on art, humor, and originality, it brought together Kamiyama’s feelings and accumulated experiences and expressed them in ever-changing forms. The brand produced apparel, graphics, remade vintage clothing, vessels, and other items. Its work crossed the boundaries of clothing and art, including hand-printed T-shirts and graphics on B-grade ceramics. In later years, the name under which he worked shifted to RYUJI KAMIYAMA, and the BLANKS name was discontinued.
Concept
To pursue making things rooted in art, humor, and originality by bringing together what Ryuji Kamiyama felt and had cultivated, and expressing it in ever-changing forms.
