With their cutsAsymmetrical and red hair and purple, they seem right out of manga.

A graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Yuima Nakazato, 37 years old, who had previously created costumes for singers, remains faithful to his theatrical and experimental aesthetic questioning the relationship between bodies and society.
