| Summary: | The West has consistently admired the development of Japanese textile art in recent decades, and Kyoko Kumai plays a central role as artist, teacher, adviser. The consummate poetry of her vision has given the world some astonishing evocations of nature. The traditions of weaving and of working by hand rather than machine or computer lie at the root of Kyoko Kumai's procedures, but her use of industrial material and off-loom three-dimensional composition places her work firmly in the arena of modern art. |
