Hannah Ueno earned an MFA in Graphic Design from Washington State University, and BFA in Visual
Communications from Nihon University, Tokyo, Japan. She teaches typography, digital imaging, 3D computer
graphics, and interactive media courses. Her illustrations and 3D Lenticular prints series have been included in various national and international group exhibitions, corporate and private collections.
This is part of a series titled "Invisible Japan". Multi-point-perspective grids, and distorted sense of depth provide the foundation for unifying the parts that make up the finished work. This series is about the lives, labor history, and controversy surrounding Buraku (Roji) people in Japan. This series is not about making a political statement, but rather a visual narrative of human stories. Roji people were skilled artisans who worked in 'what was once considered to be unclean trades' such as leather processors, slaughter houses, funeral homes during the Shogun era in Japan.
