photo-eye Gallery is delighted to announce two new works by represented artist Chaco Terada.
Known for her meditative and distinctive process, Terada prints her images directly onto multiple layers of silk, giving her images a subtle sense of three-dimensionality. She then applies text using Sumi ink with her own "free-form" calligraphy, making each work one-of-a-kind.
Having cultivated the skill of calligraphy at a very young age, and adopted photography in her twenties, Terada draws inspiration from both her own personal journey and Japanese culture to create her work. While Terada's unique pieces render as personal visual poems, her themes are universal — motifs of love, loss, family and life's journey run deep, similar to the multiple layers of silk, images and Sumi ink used to create her works.
