Hannya Geisha Mask

Beschreibung

Bold blackwork composition of a geisha wearing a Hannya mask, decorated with skulls and cherry blossoms. The Hannya mask symbolizes jealousy, rage and transformation in Japanese Noh theater; cherry blossoms suggest transience and beauty; the skulls hint at mortality. Heavy linework, ornamental hairpins and dot shading create a dramatic, neo-traditional Japanese aesthetic suited to forearm placement.
