⚫️? about Sumi and Shu ?⚫️
•
SUMI - Japanese word for black ink.
SHU - Japanese word for cinnabar ink.
•
I began "SUMI and SHU" series in 2000 from my fascination with the inks and their intricate ties to history, including shamanic rituals around the world. The power between these two colors showcase the unique Japanese aesthetics and to me illustrate a yin and yang balance of stillness and movement.
•
When I share SUMI and SHU, viewers often connect with their own culture and heritage to my forms. The series has evolved beyond my personal Japanese aesthetic interests to broader intuitive iconography in my exploration of universal translation in these primal color combinations.
•
To make ink from the ink stick, I continuously grind these against an ink stone, one that is part of my history. This time consuming but meditative process
is essential component as if the application has personal ceremonial meaning to it.
•
In my editions, I work closely with master printers to reproduce my original paintings and the ink most faithful color to SHU.
