Sato Hageshi – Nightmare in Edo – Xenomorph – Pop Art – Signed and Numbered 1/10

This piece brilliantly merges horror and tradition by depicting a Xenomorph in a classical ukiyo-e setting. A terrified courtesan in a vibrant kimono flees as the monstrous creature looms from behind, its sleek, black form contrasting with the delicate patterns of flowers and wood interiors. The scene feels both theatrical and chilling, as if the Xenomorph has stepped into a kabuki stage play or a haunted folktale from the Edo period. The aged texture of the print makes the nightmare feel timeless, as though the alien terror has haunted Japan for centuries.
