Peter Van Dingstee Gyotaku on Rice Paper Fish Print, mounted on paper, in silver grey molded wood frame.

Interpreted by artist Peter Van Dingstee, gyotaku is the Oriental art of creating prints of real fish on delicate rice paper. First practiced in the 1800s in Asia, gyotaku was a means of recording a commercial fisherman’s catch. Translated from Japanese, gyo means fish and taku is the stone rubbing process used to make the prints. Van Dingstee uses this historic art form and creates a variety of compositions, textures and colors in a modern adaptation.
