Mystic Aura, 1982

by Kurosaki Akira
The pyramid, or isosceles triangle shape, made its first appearance in Kurosaki's work in 1976 and recurred in many of his 1982 prints, finding continuing use in the 1990s. Here they act as sentinels as Akira's forms float in front of them. While the English title written by Akira on the print is "Mystic Aura", the Japanese name given in the artist's 1984 print catalog raisonne (listed below under Print Details) is 眤りの風.
