POST HIROSHIGE
Post Hiroshige is my new body of work and continues my interest into Japanese Architecture and representation of space both within artwork and publication form.
The body work draws inspiration from Historic Japanese Ukiyo-Artist Hiroshige Utagawa. The interest lie in how Hiroshige broke away with traditional mathematical formulas of the time, in-return created a new way of seeing the natural and built landscape.
The publication was created to replicate this angle of representation, through using highly detailed Photographs of the Japanese modernist city Sapporo, the publication represents the architecture landscape in a different manner, one that explores a series of unbound collages depicting the variety of Architectural nuances.
The publication is extremely limited, 150 copies being produced, each publication includes a limited edition numbered and signed Print.
Color used within the publication and Prints is the pigment data from Hiroshige Utagawa’s work “Kinryuzan Temple Akasaka, c 1830”. Provided by the National Gallery of Victoria, Australia.
