Woodblock Prints
Celebrated as much for color as pattern, the kimono is the traditional dress of Japan. Design often reflects the marital status of a woman. It can also show a specific season. Many different techniques are used for the making of kimonos: batik, shibori, and weaving. A tendency toward brighter colors and more opulent materials marks the Meiji period (1867-1912). At this time the Emperor regained his throne and opened Japan for foreign trade. This boosted the country’s prosperity. Kimono wearing has its own etiquette.
Woodblock printing flowered in the Edo Period, mid to late 19th century, and is still considered an art form of great precision and beauty. Matsui Yuoku captures both the vitality and life inherent in the kimono patterns in each color woodblock print. Following the artist sketch, an image is carved into a block of wood. Black inks form the outline of the flower and color inks are applied to specific areas. The woodblock is then pressed to hand-made screened paper which is then hung to dry. The entire process of composing a single image can take weeks.

Traditional woodblock printing enhances the beauty of each work. The artist must carve different woodblocks for every color he wishes to transfer to paper. In this style of printing it is imperative that the register of each woodblock be exact as they must match perfectly to create an image without blurring.
