Zabuton of Leaves for TAKEO PAPER SHOW 2004 "HAPTIC"
Zabuton of Leaves
- 2004
- Leave : 5 x 3 x 0.03cm
- material : Paper
I discovered that paper and autumn leaves are similar in the nature
of their pliability and texture, so I made autumn leaves out of paper.
By just looking at the zabuton you get the sensation of gathering
autumn leaves and the way it feels to sit on a pile of them.
In the long process of making all of those leaves one at a time,
my hands started looking to me like leaves.
I got a weird mental picture of hundreds of hands falling fromm a tree.
