Comic

Born 1967, Miyazaki, Japan. Having graduated the Musashino Art University, he started his career as a manga artist in 1995, and now he occasionally offers illustration works for the press and publishing houses including Comic Cue, Mizue, and Cyzo. His works are unique in his omission of speech balloons, which in usual mangas constitutes an important role in the process of storytelling. Yokoyama is thus able to position figures and images within the space of the frame as freely as he wishes. Providing extra space in the frame, he does not proceed to fill it up with detailed, abundant figures. Rather, he preserves the simplicity by keeping details to a minimum with occasional onomatopoeia, allowing readers to understand the comic with ease and also providing enough room for individual interpretations. Yokoyama currently lives and works in Saitama.

1967年生于日本宫崎。日本武藏野美术大学毕业后，他就开始了作为一名漫画艺术家的创作生涯，现在他有时为出版社提供作品，包括《喜剧演员Cue, Mizue 和Cyzo》。其作品的特点是在于有一个庞大的“讲话气球”，“讲话气球”是指通常漫画会在叙述故事的过程中创建一个重要的角色。因而，横山裕一可以在他所希望的漫画框架空间里自由定义图形和图像。即便提供了框架里的额外空间，他也不会在其中填满大量细节的东西。他宁愿偶尔采用拟声的表达方式将细节控制在最少，进而保持简单，不仅使读者很容易地理解漫画也为读者提供充足的个人解释空间。横山裕一目前工作和居住在琦玉。
