An Exhibition- Japanese Traditional and Modern
The Gallery Mt Macedon is hosting an exhibition by Anna Konecny and Yukimi Breaden incorporating mizuhiki Japanese paper cords and kimono fabric.
Anna Konecny was born in Japan and moved to Melbourne in 2007. She uses “MIZUHIKI”, the traditional paper cords which are commonly used in Japan’s gift giving culture. She taught herself the knot of Mizuhiki. During the lockdown, she researched the history of Mizuhiki. Yukimi Breaden designs and crafts using authentic Japanese fabrics and papers. She especially enjoys breathing new life into vintage materials, and this exhibition features original works made out of traditional obi (kimono belts) and silkscreened cotton fabrics.
