From the series, One Hundred Views of Edo The works in this series are loosely inspired by the great landscape series published by the Ukiyoe artists of the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly Hokusai and Hiroshige. Edo is of course now Tokyo, and while the Ukiyoe prints were meant as souvenirs of the famous sights, these works often show more idiosyncratic and unspectacular scenes. The artist lives and works in Tokyo. These scenes document his life in relation to the city.

Japan
Jotokyo has been making printed and painted artworks in Tokyo since 1996 when he abandoned home in England for a new one in Japan. Criss-crossing the city on its spiderweb network of train and subway lines, he has studied the complexity of its geometric lines and its faces; its cloud formations and its pinpoints of green. These are the themes of his work. Jotokyo is a western woodcut printmaker who works in the east. His work is closer in style to Kirchner than to Munakata. Yet, some aspects of Japanese printmaking are evident in both imagery and process. No presses are used, and all work is printed by hand using a Japanese baren to rub ink onto washi paper. Editions are limited, signed and occasionally stamped. Work is printed on lightweight handmade Japanese washi paper and delivered unframed in tubes.
