Hiroyuki Shindo ramie indigo dye, resist dyed wrapped 6 1/2" includes books with items picture.
HIROYUKI SHINDO (b. 1941 Tokyo, Japan) is one of the world's pre-eminent indigo artists, and is bringing new life into this ancient craft, using venerable techniques to produce his fascinating contemporary indigo works. Shindo says, "I have developed my own system for indigo dyeing, which utilizes wide flat troughs in which I lay small stones. As I pour the dye into the trough, I watch carefully as the indigo is drawn slowly into the fabric. The resulting gradations of hues of blue - from nearly invisible shadows to areas of nearly black -are a happy combination of natural process and my own invention. His pieces are in the permanent collections of The Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, and The Art Institute of Chicago
