Naimo Harukawa’s work often depicts scenarios of ‘Femdom’. Common subjects and motifs of his art include erotic asphyxiation, face-sitting, voluptuous women, and men being used as furniture. 



Claymation and 3D material exploration and character development;







The environment is modeled after a hotel set in the mid to late 1900s.
