"WISTERIA MAIDEN"
by Juuri
Tokyo-born Juuri commonly uses Japanese patterns, motifs, and flora to enhance her portrayals of delicate beauty. In 2020 Juuri painted this well known kabuki character in Tullahoma, Tennessee—site of of one of the WW2 internment sites for those of Japanese descent—for the Walls for Women project. Walls for Women was created by DMA to celebrate the centenary of Tennessee's role as the final state to ratify the 19th Ammendment, and to facilitate the ongoing conversation concerning the rights of women "in all facets of life."
