The Visionary World of Hiroshi Senju<\/p>\n\t

New York-based artist, Hiroshi Senju is celebrated worldwide for creating dreamy, large-scale paintings of waterfalls. And though his minimalist monochromatic visual language is primarily rooted in Abstract Expressionism, he employs traditional painting techniques that are unique to his native Japan. In fact, Senju is one of the few living artists versed in the nihonga technique, an ancient practice by which pigments made from minerals, ground stone, shells and corals are adhered to a surface (paper, silk or wood) using animal glue, known as nikawa.<\/p>\n\t
