- Mizu no Iro (Colors of Water) -

The fantastic woodblock print 'Mizu no Iro' (Colors of Water) is by Mitsuru Hiraki (b. 1958). It presents a fantastical underwater atmosphere, featuring bubble-like polka dots and fish motif rendered in a dreamlike manner, as if illuminated by sunlight filtering through the water. The print evokes a sense of gentle, dreamlike serenity.

Hiraki’s work radiates vitality, dreamlike allure, and a gentle sense of healing. His masterful use of color conveys a timeless beauty that resonates deeply with viewers.
