Sumi
Sumi is a special kind of black ink made from the soot of pine branches selected from trees in the beautiful groves on the mountainsides close to Nara and Suzuka.
For the creation of this particular artwork I have used sumi in its liquid form and let it dry for several days in order to create thin films
which I eventually roll, cut and glue to shape the piece.
