Untitled (oda-mayumi)

An untitled woodblock print by Mayumi Oda (b.1941), the feminist printmaker and Buddhist teacher born in Tokyo who studied at the Tokyo University of Fine Arts and the Pratt Graphic Center before developing the distinctive visual language that earned her the title "The Matisse of Japan." Her prints — typically depicting voluptuous goddess figures drawing on Buddhist iconography and a feminist spiritual vision — are held in major international collections and have been central to the feminist art movement's engagement with spiritual traditions. Works catalogued without titles typically represent pieces recorded before full provenance information was established.
