The Body as Canvas: DJ? Foy’s Ink Becomes Collectible Art

Tokyo’s Design Festa vol.62, held on November 15-16, 2025, at Tokyo Big Sight, became the stage for an unprecedented collaboration that blurred the lines between competitive gaming and fine art. E-sports team operator NOEZ FOXX Inc. joined forces with 3D modeling and manufacturing powerhouse Yoshimoto Art Factory LLC to debut a truly unique creation: the “Tattooed Transparent Human Specimen.”

Exhibition booth with a tattooed man (DJ? Foy) holding a package of a skeletal figure. Banners with DJ? Foy and "Narikin Ojisan" characters, transparent human models, and other art figures. Event schedule visible.

This limited-edition art piece meticulously renders the intricate tattoos of DJ? Foy, an artist affiliated with NOEZ FOXX, onto Yoshimoto Art Factory’s signature transparent human models. The exhibit drew significant attention from the moment it opened, with many visitors expressing strong interest in the innovative concept.

A Vision Beyond the Game

NOEZ FOXX operates with a bold vision: to become the world’s leading e-sports brand by transcending traditional boundaries and creating new entertainment experiences that weave together e-sports, music, and art. This collaboration was conceived to allow audiences to experience NOEZ FOXX’s unique cultural identity through a tangible, real-world product. By merging the “physical expression of a living artist” with “3D sculpted art,” the partners aimed to craft a product that served both as an art piece and an intriguing interior accent. The result, a transparent human model adorned with DJ? Foy’s actual tattoo designs, proved to be a popular attraction, stopping many attendees in their tracks.

The “Tattooed Transparent Human Specimen” Product Details

The exclusive “Tattooed Transparent Human Specimen” captures DJ? Foy’s body art with remarkable precision, thanks to Yoshimoto Art Factory’s advanced 3D sculpting technology. It was available in two sizes:

NOEZ FOXX CEO, Matsumoto Itoho, shared his excitement about the project, stating, “Experiencing my own tattoos from an overhead perspective for the first time, I honestly thought, ‘My own back looks so cool!’ I was thrilled. I’m incredibly grateful to Yoshimoto Art Factory for bringing this to life with such quality. I want to do it again!”

Expanding Artistic Horizons

This collaboration marks a significant step for both companies in expanding the creative possibilities within their respective fields. Yoshimoto Art Factory’s representative, Yoshimoto Daiki, expressed honor in the challenging project, believing it successfully created new value across the realms of e-sports and art. Nagashio Hibiki, Vice Representative of GB2 and a sculptor/director, also highlighted the collaborative spirit, noting DJ? Foy’s initial interest in their “Transparent Human Skeleton” a year prior, which sparked the idea for this unique fusion.

This initiative by NOEZ FOXX and Yoshimoto Art Factory demonstrates a forward-thinking approach to brand building and artistic expression. By leveraging authentic personal art and cutting-edge 3D technology, they are crafting a new narrative for what art and collectibles can be, pushing the boundaries of traditional creative industries. This innovative blend of digital culture and physical art is likely to inspire future collaborations, further enriching the global landscape of unique Japanese cultural exports.
