"Minka-ski Space" 30x51cm painting (42.5 x133cm scroll) nihonga paint on washi paper, fabric scroll 2024

Edit: SOLD

Our first kakejiku in over 3 years, this traditional nihonga (Japanese mineral pigment paint) artwork was inspired by the old joinery in our 140 year old farmhouse in the Japanese countryside, and our young cats who figured out they could ascend the columns like a tree trunk and have a whole new world to explore in the rafters over our heads. Like many of our cat paintings, almost all the cats are ours, or friends' cats. The cats are not, however, existing in one dimension, but we seem to be seeing multiple dimensions of cats and joinery in the same moment and thus it may seem to make sense to our perception and then lose sense and back again - they seem to have their own kind of logic.

Kozy painted this artwork using the very traditional medium of Japanese painting - crushing minerals into a fine powder herself and mixing them into warmed hide glue to make each color, repeatedly re-warming the mixture to keep it at the correct temperature necessary to paint it onto the handmade washi paper.

Once the painting was finished, we took it to a father and son scroll making team in the mountains of Minobu, Yamanashi, where we selected the elements of fabric they would use to build the scroll around the painting (one might assume a painting is attached to the front of a scroll, but in fact the fabric elements are cut and glued to fit around the painting instead).

We have sent this painting off to Outré Gallery in Melbourne, Australia for their 2024 Vanguard group exhibition, which is on view September 6 - 29, 2024.
