Karamatsu 唐松(からまつ)｜Kimura Shigeru 木村茂(きむらしげる)

From the 1960s, he narrowed down his motifs to "trees" and "Japanese landscapes," shifting his style to one imbued with a meditative and deep spirituality. Through countless lines carved by persistently moving the etching needle, he fixed the powerful energy of nature devoid of decorativeness—such as the roughness of tree bark, intertwined branches and leaves, moist soil, and the feeling of the air—into a monochrome world. This work heavily expresses the vitality of nature and trees using countless delicate carved lines that fill the screen.
