Masashi Kanasaki spent an extraordinary amount of time creating something which has never been seen before. "no art, no life" introduces artists from across Japan for whom expression is not a choice, but a compulsion. Not influenced by existing art or trends, nor by education, these artists and their works are gaining worldwide recognition. Devoted to creation, not for anyone else or even for themselves, they have a powerful presence. This episode features Masashi Kanasaki (29) who lives in Kichijoji, Tokyo. The program delves into his creative process and attempts to capture his unique form of expression.
