In March 2022, Tokyo WALLS brought together seven artists whose signatures had long been part of Tokyo’s urban landscape: DFace, Atomiko, Jeremy Yamamura, Maws, VLOT, Fuki Committee, and Wackozaki. Each of them had carved out a presence in the city through murals, graffiti, stickers, or a combination of all three. The project aimed to assemble a group as diverse as Tokyo itself—different nationalities, different techniques, and different artistic histories converging for a temporary but powerful statement.

Tokyo WALLS invited each of them to create original designs that would be wet-pasted onto wooden boards, carefully treated to imitate aged concrete surfaces. These boards became hybrid objects—portable fragments of the city, capturing the texture and imperfections of the environments where their real work lived.

 

The process blurred the line between documentation and creation. The boards were neither
reproductions nor traditional artworks; they were extensions of the artists’ street practices, transformed into tangible pieces without losing their urban DNA. The weathering, the cracks, the patina—everything was constructed with deliberate care, a simulation of time passing in the open air.

Among these concrete-like works, Fuki Committee presented something special: their first-ever original artworkcreated for an indoor context. It was a quiet but important moment: a glimpse into their emerging vocabulary, their tone, and their storytelling. For viewers who had only known their presence through stickers spotted across Tokyo, this work became the first opportunity to see the world behind the street persona.

This collaboration marked an early milestone for Tokyo WALLS. It showed how artists rooted in the streets could be brought together without removing them from the environments that shaped them. It also demonstrated the platform’s role as a bridge, between the city outside and the art world within. If “Activity Report” would later define a turning point for Fuki Committee, this March 2022 project stood as one of the seeds from which that journey began.
