NICOLE BRAY: My personal art
collection centers around the idea of
Warrior Women, strong female artists who are redefining sexuality, identity, and personal narratives.
The Hood's
collection of Japanese prints represents major print genres and themes, including actors (yakusha - e), fashionable
women (bijinga), perspective (uki - e), landscape (fūkeiga),
warriors (musha - e), Japan's 19th - century modernization (kaika - e), and early 20th - century prints (shin hanga).
