Diary: March 27th and 28th, '02

Spanning two consecutive days, this 2002 woodcut and silkscreen print is one of the few Diary entries that covers a multi-day interval. The double date — March 27th and 28th — suggests either a scene observed across two days or a printing process that bridged the weekend. Late March in Japan is peak cherry blossom season in many regions, and the image may reflect that fleeting botanical moment. The woodcut-silkscreen combination allowed Noda to layer photographic observation with hand-carved textures, creating prints that feel both documentary and crafted. The two-day title subtly challenges the series' implicit one-day-one-print structure.
