ROSE HIRANO
"My works are pages from my visual
journal – a log of my ideas and points of view using images instead of
words. Searching for balance and personal peace draws me to the
simplicity of abstracted images using a muted palette. I am drawn to
bare trees, which are akin to the true nature of people: the way they
truly are - unadorned and without pretense. I am equally intrigued by
reflections, which impart essentially what appears to be – on the
surface – leaving what lies below an intriguing source of wonderment." Rose Hirano 2012
As an established artist, Rose Hirano now works almost exclusively in reduction woodcut, a multi-inking process, printing from light to dark values using a single piece of wood. Each image averages ten to twelve colour layers. She has come to embrace this methodical and meditative process.
