Microscopic World A-2 Collage

Junko Chodos (born 1939) is a contemporary artist born and educated in Japan and residing in the United States since 1968. Her works represent a wide variety of techniques and styles, ranging from pencil, pen, and collage, to works done with acrylic. Junko describes her art as "Centripetal", in the belief that both the artist and the viewer have a "center" - a "soul" - and that authentic art moves from the soul of the artist to the soul of the viewer.
