At the Sea of Asia, a 2020 silkscreen by Miwa Komatsu in an edition of 50, signed in pencil and framed, a horned guardian beast coiled in gold and black against fields of blue, orange and pink.
The Piece
Miwa Komatsu, born in Nagano in 1984, paints the guardian beasts and spirits of Japanese belief in dense, glittering line, and in 2015 her Arita porcelain komainu entered the British Museum. Her silkscreens are printed in small numbered editions and carry the same coiled energy as her paintings.
Here the beast fills the sheet, a knot of black and gold scrolls with a turquoise eye at its centre, set against bright planes of colour. The signature sits at lower right and the edition number at lower left, both in pencil on the white margin.
The sheet measures 55.9 x 46.1 cm (22 x 18.1 in) and the frame 66 x 56 cm (26 x 22 in). Kept unopened in its storage box and yellow cloth bag since framing, it is as fresh as the day it left the studio.
