About: Yoshiko Shimano is an artist and Professor of Printmaking
at the University of New Mexico. Speaking of her work, Shimano says; "I am
moved when human beings continue to live with pride and hope even under
difficult circumstances like wars, natural disasters, poverty, or
discrimination in its many different aspects toward minority groups.” Shimano’s
large scale works draw from diverse techniques and combine painterly monoprint
elements, digital and photographic elements in the form of silkscreen and ink
jet printing, three dimensional woodcuts, graphic looks from linoleum stamping
and stenciling, and textile elements like print on fabric.
