"A project intended to bring comfort and joy to those feeling frustrated, anxious, or helpless by NYC/Shanghai-based illustrator Handowin He. "Off Work Everyday" is a music and art collaboration with He's friend, DJ Shun. It consists of eight digital albums representing the seven days of the week plus one "bonus" day. Each illustration explores the fusion of two parallel worlds-the background capturing real Japanese landscapes, while the framed panels reveal fleeting, dreamlike moments connected to those places."

The series draws on travel memories of Japan to evoke nostalgia and serenity and to encourage noticing small moments of happiness through art and music.
