The first book on a painter who expresses contemporary modernity through ancient painting techniques that are unique to Japan. Hiroshi Senju’s art can be understood in its simple immediacy—a sense of powerful, timeless calm, and the monumental force and presence of nature is perceived. He combines finely ground pigments derived from natural materials in a medium of animal-hide glue, then applies this “paint” to handmade rice paper mounted on board.
