- Curator's comments
- Miyasaki’s lithographs combine both spontaneous and immediate gesture with an overlayered built-up complexity. This colour lithograph was printed by the artist as a composite image from many layers of superimposed printing in different coloured inks. Each layer of imagery evolved from the one before it, creating illusions of depth and space.
