Woodblock print
Edition:
Self-printed

Description

An abstract woodblock print composed of angular, interlocking triangular and faceted planes rendered in dense parallel line-hatching, in burnt orange against a black background. The fractured, prism-like shapes suggest a stylized head in profile, built entirely from sharp geometric facets rather than representational features. The overall effect is stark and graphic, with the fine ruled lines creating texture and directional movement across the composition. Kinoshita Tomio, *Faces, No. 3*, woodblock print, year unknown.
