Junko Suzuki

Japan

 

I like black and white. It is like a light and shadow. My technique is Hogushi-gasuri. It is kind of Ikat. First, I design the image. Next, I weave the cloth. Then, I draw or make a screen print  on the cloth. Then I put the cloth back on the loom. And take off the weft yarn. Finally, I weave the weft yarn again. Weft yarn is shifted, the image is to create a depth in the thin cloth.
