11 Favorite And Hilarious Memes Are Recreated In Japanese Print Styles

Margot Nolan

memes are becoming more and more popular today. They are so pervasive that you can see memes on almost all social platforms. So why do memes resonate so universally, and why can’t you resist clicking on them? Memes are the digital versions of inside jokes which are relatable. Overcoming language barriers, memes may be the easiest and fastest ways to deliver jokes and then unite people from different cultures, and backgrounds. In addition, memes can help to spread knowledge of your culture to the world.
A talented artist, also known for the named ukiyomemes on social media, recreated favorite memes all over the world in Japanese print styles. He wanted to combine this Japanese classic art style and modern culture to create something new. It's because he has been fostered a lifelong and strong desire for Japanese art and culture through his grandmother's small series of original ukiyo-e since his childhood.
Until the first illustration, which he created as just the Christmas gift for his wife, he developed it into an art project called "Memes of the Floating World". And the results are amazingly great. Let's scroll down and check them out!
