<p class="has-text-align-justify">If you thought memes couldn’t get any better, we have news for you! There exists a famous Japanese art version of our favourite ones and it’s beautiful, hilarious and astonishing – all at the same time! Griffin Waldau from Seattle, USA specialises in giving us joy by creating Ukiyo-e counterparts of the laughter-inducers!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is Ukiyo-e, exactly?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://yodoozy.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/23-1024x684.jpg" alt="This Artist Has Created The Japanese Version Of Our Favourite Memes!" class="wp-image-21265" width="800"/></figure>



<p class="has-text-align-justify">Ukiyo-e is Japanese for “pictures of the floating world”, and is a really important art genre in Japan. In fact, from the years 1603 to 1867(the Tokugawa period), Ukiyo-e was regarded as the most important art movement in the land of anime.</p>



<p>The Ukiyo-e is famous for its amalgamation of realism and frivolity. The realism is in part native, and in part foreign. ;</p>



<p>Even though the common subjects back then included life at the ‘entertainment centres’, prostitutes and courtesans, our artist in light is doing something different!</p>



<p class="has-text-align-justify">When it came to wood-block printing, Ukiyo-e artists became more democratic in their approach. They would embrace the everyday life and try to capture it. This enabled the mass-consumption of Ukiyo-e pieces and helped in its development.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What does this particular artist do?</h2>



<p>Needless to say, our highlighted creator loves memes! This is exactly why they’ve improvised the art of Ukiyo-e to suit their preference and turned world famous memes and meme-caricatures into these Japanese art pieces.</p>



<p>Cats are the best part! Ukiyo-e cats are fierce yet gentle, and devastatingly cute!</p>
