This work is currently shortlisted for the Signature Art Prize 2020/21 (Category: Drawing + Printmaking). About the artist: Lena Yokoyama graduated from Camberwell College of Arts with a BA in Illustration: "In my latest work I’ve been visualising traditional Japanese folklore stories through etching and monoprinting. These images have also been translated to three-dimensional objects made through clay." About the work: This piece is a visual translation of the Japanese Folklore Momotaro. It is the first of a series of Etchings on Canvas which all belong to a different story. This very piece has been crucial to the formation of my current practice. The process of creating this etching has led to making a series of stylistic decisions, partly evoked by the medium, as well as inspired the themes I plan to work with in the future. This piece is the physical manifestation of my thesis which I wrote on ‘visual translation’ in art between the East and the West.
