MEDIUM
Steel, Mulberry paper and Wildflowers
DESCRIPTION
Original
A hand-bent, shaped and welded steel frame supports this piece, allowing light to glow through both shade and base. The paper's unique texture is achieved through a traditional Japanese process called Momigami, which translates to 'kneaded paper.' This technique, once used by Japanese peasants who could not afford expensive fabric, strengthens the paper, giving it with remarkable resilience.
This golden hue was created from a blend of wildflowers, including chamomile, goldenrod, and dandelion, all gathered in late August. The dye captures the warmth of summer and the sunlit fields.
