Saturday April 11 (9AM-12 London, 10-13 Berlin, 17-20 Hong Kong)
A three-hour workshop full of pre-summer introspection and conversations
hosted by Skool Beyond Borders
The Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji (c. 1830–1833) is Hokusai’s most celebrated series and a landmark in world art. Mount Fuji appears again and again, sometimes dominant, sometimes barely visible, framed by waves, bridges, fields, laborers, and weather. Rather than portraying the mountain as a static icon, Hokusai treats it as a relational presence—unchanging yet constantly re-seen. The series explores perspective, scale, and seasonality, using repetition with variation to show how a single subject transforms depending on vantage point, time, and circumstance. It is less a documentary project than a meditation on permanence within flux.
Observed today, the Mount Fuji prints lend themselves naturally to personal introspection and reflection. Each view invites the viewer to consider where they are standing—literally and metaphorically—and how perspective shapes meaning. Fuji can be read as a personal constant: a value, purpose, or inner anchor that remains steady while life’s conditions shift around it. Moving through the series becomes an exercise in awareness: noticing what comes to the foreground, what recedes, and how the same core can appear distant, overwhelming, or quietly sustaining. In this way, Hokusai’s prints offer not just images to admire, but mirrors for reflecting on change, continuity, and one’s relationship to the larger whole.
