From Imprintgallery.com: Yuji Hiratsuka's work communicates a personal narrative through a carefully crafted visual language of symbolism and metaphor. It expresses the accumulated experience of: his cultural heritage, which itself is a synthesis of Japanese tradition and globalized western consumerism; and his everyday life in the US. While he acknowledges traditional Japanese Ukiyo-e prints in the construct of his craft, his imagery has a satirical sense of whimsy relating more closely to contemporary life and western sensibilities.
