Description:
Iri and Toshi Maruki are a husband and wife team of muralists famous for their artwork depicting the devastation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They have a distinctive collaborative process: one paints the detailed scenes of the atomic bombing's victims, while the other uses a grey-black ink wash to obscure the brushstrokes. The first artist meticulously creates the image, and the second then hides it. This repeated process is how their artwork takes shape.
