Like that of Itsuo Kobayashi, a former Japanese soba chef born in 1962 who has recorded his meals in painstakingly detailed, hand-drawn food diaries of sorts for the past 32 years.
But when we attended New York’s Outsider Art Fair this winter, Kobayashi’s work really stood out (literally) in a sea of fresh talent.
We can’t wait to see what Kobayashi cooks up next.
