This year, the meeting of traditional Japanese art and horse racing has been a major success. Tōkai Teiō, an artist who specializes in creating traditional Japanese-style art, created a piece that changed his life. The artwork was released on Japan Derby Day, one of the biggest days for horse racing in Japan. It quickly became popular on Twitter and other social media platforms, and has been growing in popularity ever since. The artwork is known as “競馬和アート” or “horse racing waza art”. It combines traditional Japanese elements such as calligraphy and painting with modern elements like horse racing imagery to create something truly unique. The artwork is designed to be enjoyed by both experienced racegoers and those new to the sport alike.

He believes that this type of art can bring people together from all walks of life, regardless of their knowledge or experience with horse racing. He also hopes that it will help promote understanding between cultures by bridging the gap between traditional Japanese culture and modern day sports entertainment.
