Akio Hamatani

I may be a bit slow on the uptake but I have just discovered the work of Japanese fibre artist Akio Hamatani. I'm struggling to find details of any upcoming exhibitions of his but this piece, W-orbit, 2010, was shown last year at the Japan Society in New York.

Gutted to have missed it but even the photograph is breathtaking.

Eagerly awaiting...

I would go to Japan if only to see this.

Not the highest quality images but photographs taken from my book Clothscapes. More to come and higher quality in due course.

I've been learning how to use my camera
