 "Tsuzureori": Featuring Japanese Glass Artist Aki Takemoto
What is TSUZUREORI? This term translates to meaning "hand-woven fabric". Since Aki's artistry is entirely composed of glass, her TSUZUREORI is a fabric-like image whose composition has been constructed in varying combinations of colors and patterns which have been influenced by the passage of time. Aki's artistry relies upon her enamel painting and fusing capabilities. She paints on thin sheets of glass then piles, fuses, and cuts them into smaller sizes. Lastly, she assembles the resulting smaller-sized creations into a mosaic which is then, once more, fused.
