thedeity: R.I.P. Eiko Ishioka, a “multifaceted designer… [who] was one of relatively few artists of her generation to work prominently not only in two-dimensional media like posters and print advertising but also in three-dimensional ones like sets and costumes.” Her exquisite designs can be seen in films such as Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula and Tarsem Singh’s The Cell, The Fall, Immortals, as well as the upcoming “Mirror Mirror.” She possessed a transcendent vision that is rare within this world. Ishioka passed away from pancreatic cancer on January 21, 2012 in Tokyo. She was 73 years old. A genuine visionary.
