About the Artwork

This piece has a meanndering stripe pattern called tachiwaku, a traditional Japanese pattern expressing the rising of water and clouds. I made the pattern by weaving thin paper-like strips into the vertical round bamboo strips like needlework.

Techniques Used

Plaited bamboo

Plaited bamboo basketry (amimono) is created by weaving together hundreds of strips of bamboo into patterns known as plaiting (ami). Various patterns and shapes can be created by using bamboo strips of different widths or thicknesses. The many styles of plaiting utilize bamboo’s pliability to produce beautifully patterned works.
