    While rummaging through a used book store in Princeton, New Jersey, I
    discovered a volume of haiku and tanka translated by Kenneth Rexroth and Ikuko
    Atsumi in 1977. The poems were by Japanese women from the 7th through the
    20th centuries and represent all the major styles during this period from the
    Classical to Contemporary schools. I was immediately drawn to the poems, and as I
    read them so allusive and rich in imagery I knew that I wanted to make their
    photographic equivalents.

    The Floating World refers to the conception of a world as evanescent, impermanent,
    of fleeting beauty and divorced from the responsibilities of the mundane, everyday world. For the poets in this volume, that world centered on love longing for
    love and the beloved, mourning lost love, pondering its mystery. The beauty of
    the natural world its flowers, landscape, the moon, and the changing seasons
    serves as the primary metaphor.

    This series is available in three sizes and is printed using archival pigment inks
    on uncoated Kozo (mulberry) paper handmade in Japan.

    Original calligraphy by Richard Man.
