Kỹ thuật: Gold Leaf
Across a brilliant gold-leaf background, the artist fashioned a wide undulating line from traditional Japanese paper (washi) soaked in ink and crushed-shell pigment (gofun) and then pressed into compact folds. The pair of screens is titled Kyoku, which in Japanese can mean “bend,” “curve,” “music,” or “tune” and is also the term used to describe the individual panels of a folding screen. The artist said of this work, “In the vicissitudes of life, we twist and turn, go and return, but always we aspire to move forward.” This idea and the musical connotations of kyoku led to the work’s English title: Life’s Symphony.
