TIDE
Japanese, b. 1984

Tatsuhiro Ide, better known as TIDE, has risen to international prominence for his pared-back monochromatic compositions that depict the exploits of the artist’s trademark character, a cartoon-like cat. TIDE often depicts this alter ego snuggled up or sitting grumpily in a cat bed with arms crossed à la Garfield. TIDE’s settings are richly detailed, resembling childhood bedtime story books or the hand-drawn backgrounds of vintage cartoons. He also uses a variety of techniques to construct his paintings, from gestural spray paint to rough brushstrokes to soft airbrush sheens. He has exhibited in New York City, Tokyo, Seoul, and London, among other cities.

No apparent condition issues noted.
