50 Powerful Illustrations By Japanese Artist That Will Make You Think (New Pics)

This is a Japanese legend, the thousands paper cranes.

This hits me hard

Too exhausted to wind myself up again for the world.

Hard to keep the Demons inisde

Back to nature?

The dark side of all this lovely, easy to access social media

Or another darker interpretation is their parents are they type of couple so in love with each other the child gets forgotten and seen as little more than an accessory.

Help those who are weak

okay this one made me emo :(

If only it was this simple. To go to sleep you'd just have to lay back.

And all the masks I caaaarry on my face. For you, for anoooother, some calm and then some grace ♬♪

Being unable to adapt

Worn out

I don't understand why people think the grim reaper is bad. The grim reaper isn't the killer,he is just supposed to lead your souls right? When everyone is scared of the grim reaper they really are just scared of death

there's no one else but yourself to help you

I've got mixed feelings about this one. ♥

The child inside him..

Forcing a smile.

Putting the pieces back together again.

Til death do us part

Love. Crossing paths

feeling of depression as everything drags you down and holds you back

I only apologize out of formality

I kind of wish this were possible... to be honest. Sometimes I'm so tired I wanna have my batteries charged as quickly and easily as my phone.

Feeling a need to change who we really are.

Sheltered.

Investing in your child just to later use him to realize your own goals. Distasteful and very, very sad.

The prettiest isn't always the best.

This one hits far too close to the truth. Working on that side of the desk this picture perfectly sums up how it can feel taking verbal blow after blow while keeping a pleasant tone and smile on your face because it's that or loose your job.

This one is somehow so creepy and ominuous. I wonder what the point is .. the feeling that everyone and everything is waiting for your mistake? One step aside and game over?

A Parents love can trap and suffocate

Very powerful and strong work! I am touched by every single piece of it.

Your time has come.

Literal workload

Mental breakdown.

I thought it was memory loss, with the missing SD card

to the world they were just a number . to you they were your world

Hating yourself?

Even if you die, there is always something that remains after you. These lycorises are beautiful - even if they grow up on a dead body. For me, despite all of grimness on this picture, it is still full of hope.

This one is so sad. I hate seeing parents with their little ones who just want their attention.. I hope to NOT be one of these parents. My children will ALWAYS be more important than my phone.

Faking the holiday spirit.

I see it as an isolation in her own world. The girl is so concentrated on her plans and goals (documents in her arms, money attached to her oxygen bottle) that she doesn't have time to enjoy the world outside her box and just live on. Maybe she even doesn't want to because it feels safer not to go out?

Literally imprisoned by your phone.

That sums up alarm clocks... little killers who ruin everything

Regret.

Whao, ok, Im' not going to eat my pomegranates today..

I know this plant, it traps insects then drowns them with rain water

The hand giveth and the hand taketh away

Suspended in sleep.

Fear of mental illness?
