The only artist in the world to embed gold leaves in glass; kirikane | Yamamoto Akane: Making Beauty

Описание к видео The only artist in the world to embed gold leaves in glass; kirikane | Yamamoto Akane: Making Beauty

This series celebrates the work of living Japanese artists and craftspeople.
Yamamoto Akane puts the traditional decorative technique of kirikane centre stage in her stunning glass sculptures, with painstaking precision she melds gold leaves together, cuts them into tiny strands and shapes and then uses them to create mesmerising geometric designs inspired by Buddhist sculpture decoration.

This film, sadly delayed by Covid, is the last in the Making Beauty series. It is a fitting end piece to a series celebrating the innovation, precision and beauty of Japanese Kogei.

This film series has been produced with the support of JTI.
