The Pacific Asia Museum says:
In this exhibition, Shizuko Greenblatt explores a new mode of calligraphy on canvas as well as a fresh approach to ikebana. Greenblatt presents Japanese characters in an abstract expressionistic style while retaining the basic structure of each character. As a result, the character or image alludes to its original meaning, but at the same time her spontaneous brushstrokes blur its legibility. The artist's exploration of formality continues through the Fusion Ikebana Series as she challenges the meaning of ikebana, or the Japanese art of flower arrangement, in terms of aesthetics and materiality
