Kataoka's 25th limited edition commemorative print, is a portrait of American jazz giant, Wynton Marsalis. The artistic director of Jazz at Lincoln Center, eight-time Grammy recipient and Pulitzer Prize winner collaborated with Kataoka in an extraordinary project where jazz, justice, and the 2000 year-old art form of sumi-e converge. They joined forces in an artistic response to answer the call of many under-served and under-represented voices. The voice of her brush joined with the voices of the American roux in his trumpet resound with a clarion call to action. All proceeds benefitted the Legal Aid Society.
