Grid Unwoven

Grid Unwoven

CRAFT × TECH Tokai Projectにて、国際的なデザインスタジオ「Lanzavecchia + Wai」と協働し、作品「Grid Unwoven」の和紙制作を担当しました。

本作品では、美濃の伝統的な手漉き和紙の技法を用い、一枚一枚の紙の厚みや繊維の密度、光の透過性を細かく調整しています。

手漉き和紙ならではの繊維の重なりが柔らかな光を生み出し、見る角度や時間によって異なる表情を見せます。

障子の持つ美しさを現代的な造形へと展開し、和紙・光・木・空間が調和するインスタレーションとして表現されています。

For the CRAFT × TECH Tokai Project, I collaborated with the international design studio Lanzavecchia + Wai and produced the handmade washi for the installation Grid Unwoven.

Using traditional Mino washi-making techniques, each sheet was carefully crafted by adjusting its thickness, fiber distribution, and translucency.

The natural texture of handmade washi softly diffuses light, creating subtle changes in appearance depending on the viewer’s perspective and the surrounding light.

Inspired by the traditional Japanese shoji, the installation reinterprets the relationship between washi, light, wood, and architectural space in a contemporary form.
