Photographs printed on Japanese paper are colored with rock paints made from ores, and also natural stones are placed on the screen. The natural stone used is Manihar crystal. It is believed to have mystical powers, enhance intuition, and have the ability to balance the body, mind, and emotions. Misuzu Shibuya's photographs of women with various stories have now added more stories to her work. Technique :Archival Pigment Print, Japanese paper(Washi), Gemstone, Animal glue,Natural mineral pigments, ed.2/3 No other size Model :Noriko Suezawa The price includes the frame, but the acrylic on the front of the work is not included so that the viewer can enjoy the texture of the photo and the natural stone. UV-cut acrylic can be added for an extra charge if necessary. I am taking a picture to be someone. I am projecting myself onto others, wishing it were me reflected here. I guess you could say it is a self-portrait using others. Although I am not yet able to face myself squarely, I would like to continue to create works of art that will enable people with similar complexes to project themselves onto others, so that one day that day will come.
