[grain Series]
This work, named "grain series," is composed of many colored grains. As the name "grain" implies, the ink grains are layered to express colors and tones, which can also be replaced by grains of light.

The image created by the layers of ink grains is unpredictable, betraying our perception of the computer simulation in advance. It took two years of repeated trials between Iba and the print studio Nomart Editions to complete the work. A total of seven editions were made, using the workshop's techniques, including the use of partially foamed ink to create a more grainy effect in areas close to the surface.
