Fuyuko Matsui is an amazing artist that uses the traditional Japanese style Nihonga to paint Japanese women as seen through what she feels and how it feels to be a woman. Many of her paintings are of women who are disfigured and surrounded by either animals and or flowers. Japanese woman are second class no matter what in Japan and she says she is not a feminist but just shows how she feels. I think most of today's art is cute and what makes Japan different are it's ghostly traditional silk paintings that really define Japan's wonderful culture.http://www.pileup.com/babyart/blog/?p=168
