Is Shintaro Kago a Horror Artist?
Technically, yes. But calling Kago a horror artist is like calling electricity a light source — you’re missing the danger.
He draws horror, yes — but also math, memory, dreams, sarcasm. The terror comes not from monsters, but from logic falling apart. From the body betraying itself. From diagrams that feel personal.
Kago doesn’t scare you. He destabilizes you.
