Red Hook Islands – 1770/2012, 2020

Mokuhanga (water-based woodcut) on washi (Echizen Kozo)

Is this a map or an abstract artwork? The print is a result of research of Red Hook’s original islands and waterways after Storm Sandy hit New York City in 2012.  Woodblocks of shapes, streets and water are overlaid with a 1770s map of the original islands.
