Musee de Some Seiryu

In the heart of Kyoto is a gallery devoted to the art of textile dying.  The current exhibition showcases a group of five promising young artists. 





This rozome artist has a unique style all her own. Instead of blocking in large patches of color, she instead waxes around her image, leaving the thinnest gaps you can imagine.  The results after dying are rozome drawings that are both simple and elegant.
