Huge woodcut by this contemporary Japanese artist printed to the edges. Signed, titled and numbered in pencil, the large work on Japan paper, float mounted/framed in a stunning contemporary black frame by John Jones. “It was during one of my stays in Italy where I was working with marble, we had a long rainy patch. As I was working outdoor, I was cooped up inside for days. I did series of drawings of people and animals swept by the flood water. The idea for this print came from one of the drawings of that time. Since 11/3/2011 I have seen many documentaries on the survivors of the Tsunami, talking about being swept away; losing loved ones in a split second with a hand reaching out for them. It won a prize at Bradford Print Biennale. All best,Tsugumi.”
