30. "Kusudama" Michael Michalski Brooklyn, New York |
| Commercial cotton prints and batiks, cotton and poly batting, cotton cord, foundation paper piecing, faux trapunto, couching. |
| Kusudama are decorative paper balls made for special occasions. They show the mastery of the origami artist in using simple paper squares. Likewise the quilt maker uses fabric as a way to express an inner vision, of showing others how we see things. Quilts function as both artistic viewpoint and a way of showing others we care. Kusudama represents how a craftsman and his medium work together in that expression, an alliance of artist and material. |
