Entei Ryu (She/Her)
Concept Artist
Modeler/Sculptor
Entei Ryu is a lead concept artist at Kojima Productions and is truly a jack-of-all-traits. The Japanese artist is a formally trained architect, earning her degree in the architecture department at the University of Tokyo. She spent over seven years studying architecture all across the globe but architecture isn’t her only forte as Ryu is also an artist, a sculptor and a concept designer who has created work for film and video games. In the past few years, Ryu has shifted from digital illustration to more traditional mediums including oils, acrylic, resin, clay and mineral pigment while also dabbling in jewellery and fashion design.
Her work explores fantastical worlds and rich character design all through a highly emotional, cultural and mythology based lens that is guaranteed to strike a chord with anyone viewing her work.
