From wikipedia:

Kōhei Sugiura (杉浦 康平, Sugiura Kōhei, b. 1932, Tokyo) is a Japanese graphic designer and researcher in Asian iconography.

Throughout his career, Sugiura has been a pioneer within the design world using a process that champions the visualization of consciousness for his unprecedented work of record jackets, posters, books, magazines, exhibition catalogues, diagrams, stamps and more. He is also active in promoting the study of traditional Asian cultures through the creation of innovative catalogue designs and the organization of exhibitions such as Mandala: now you see it, now you don't (1980) and Flower Cosmology: Traditions in Dyeing, Weaving, and Ornaments (1992), as well as prolific research on the subject of cosmologies and mandalas.
