A SERIES OF VIEWS OF MT. FUJI
This project involves re-conceptualizing one of the most famous woodcut series in the history of art “A Series of Views of Mt. Fuji.” Created by Katsushika Hokusai (Japanese, 1760–1849), the series includes 36 prints, among the most famous, The Great Wave, ca. 1831, from “A Series of Views of Mt. Fuji.”
Each piece is built upon one of Hokusai’s prints with new layers set on them by me as an artist. I am intrigued with these works in creating a new perspective on each of Hokusai’s prints.
