"Geisha and the Snake" represents the women during the tough old ages of Japan where a lot of females struggled and survived by prostitution and entertainment. A woman can be prey for anything, for example, a snake. Or rather, the woman can be the snake itself, to symbolize the hidden potential of a woman and what she can bring.
About Karim Dagher
Karim Dagher, also known as Kikotama, is a Lebanese illustrator. Passionate about Japanese culture, he delved into the world of comics, manga, character design, and storytelling from his early years.
His natural talent and ease of drawing were directly recognized. He enrolled in art classes and drawing clubs during his school years to sharpen his skills and explore what he does best.
Kikotama deepened his knowledge and techniques when he attended the “Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts” university in Beirut, where he obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Arts as well as a Master’s degree in Illustration.
Today, Kikotama’s style focuses on monochromatic art inspired by Japanese culture. He creates his original characters by blending digital art and traditional works on paper. He showcased his work in numerous exhibitions and art fairs.
