Description
A self-portrait or artist-identification print using Sekino's name as the entire content — the artist asserting his identity through the same medium in which he worked. The print may be a bookplate, a colophon page, or a standalone identity work; in any case, the act of printing one's own name in woodblock has a declarative quality, the artist's signature given the permanence and physicality of the printed mark.
