KISS VS MCZ
About the Artwork
The print depicts a battle scene between the Japanese idol group MOMOIRO CLOVER Z (MCZ), wearing vibrant, colorful armors, and KISS, as the black flamed, fireball monster. This ukiyo-e design was inspired by the covers of their collaboration CD Yume no Ukiyo ni Saitemina (“Samurai Son”), written by Paul Stanley and released in early 2015.

Maintenance and Preservation
Over time, the color will fade, which is part of the ukiyo-e experience. Keep the ukiyo-e out of direct sunlight, strong ultraviolet sources, and high humidity. Once the artwork is received, remove the folio from the plastic sheath to let it breathe.
*Attention
- Each work is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
- Edition numbers will be chosen randomly.
- Each piece is created by hand, therefore, they may all have subtle differences in size and colour between them. For this reason, at UKIYO-E PROJECT every print is considered unique, aligned with the Edo period philosophy that each ukiyo-e is an “original” piece of work.
- They will be packaged and sent in a specially designed folio.
- The artwork is sold unframed.
