I am a professional Artist from Japan, now based in Oregon. I has been working with Traditional Japanese Textile Techniques, Katazome, Bingata, and Shibori, since 2011. Historically, these techniques have been used to make Kimonos. I instead use these techniques to make cloth fine art, inspired by Miracle Moments with nature. All my Artworks for sale are Original. Bingata and Katazome both start with making a hand-cut stencil. Placing the stencil on cloth, I make a resist using rice paste, and hand-paint each work using natural pigments or by traditional indigo dye processes. My Shibori work is a smaller part of my presentation. These are organic hemp sarongs dyed with indigo, their white patterns are a “hand sew and cut away” dye resist process.
