Mitate Series

Starting from objects closely connected with Japanese culture, in this series Shiomi invites the viewer to interpret their own meaning of the images, by creating their own combinations and associations.

No. 96 depicts the painting of master painter Sesshu (1420-1506). Sesshu was a Zen monk who is considered to be one of the greatest Japanese ink painters, best known for his landscape paintings. His splashed-ink landscape painting Sansui (1495) has been designated a National Treasure.

Nana Shiomi (b. 1956) works in the traditional Japanese woodblock technique. Her works often explore the theme of duality – of opposites and contrasts, and many shine a new light on symbols of Japanese culture. She lives and works in London.
