Embroidering the pattern, Sanuki kagari temari – (Minamoto Tadayuki) ◄ Poprzedni Następny ►

Artist: Minamoto Tadayuki

Muzeum: Art Research Center (Kyoto, Japan)

Technika: Cotton

The base ball is divided evenly into sections with dyed yarn, which become guidelines for the embroidery of the pattern. Imagining the temari to be a globe, the North and South Poles and the Equator are determined, and base lines are embroidered. Depending on the pattern, the “globe” may be divided into perhaps four, six, eight or 10 sections. Guided by these lines, the pattern is embroidered with a needle.
