"Eco-Sublime" National Taïwan Craft Research and Development Institute Caotun 2017 "The Guardians" : Oak1 and Oak 2 |
The fragility of washi paper in opposition to the brutal force of nature, here represented by images of oak trees. Eco, because hand made paper is totally in an ecological way of living and practice.
