Before diving into the book itself, it is essential to understand why Uketsu’s work translates so well into the ePub format. Uketsu began his career creating content for the Japanese humor and culture site Omocoro . His breakthrough came from a multimedia approach to storytelling: mixing text, dialogue transcripts, and visual graphics.
One of the central themes of "Strange Pictures" is the exploration of the self and the other, often blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. Uketsu employs a variety of characters and scenarios that invite readers to reflect on their perceptions of the world and themselves.
