Sumo Banzuke
- Designers Lotte Lawson
The Banzuke is a document listing the rankings of professional grand sumo wrestlers. It can be traced back as far as 1761 and has been a defining component of sumo for many centuries.
Released two weeks before an official tournament begins, it will list each rikishi (wrestler) by ring name, rank and region. The highest ranked wrestlers are represented by the larger icons, whilst the lowest are smaller in scale. This is a Banzuke re-imagined for a contemporary western audience.
A2 Digital print, 240gsm uncoated.
