Exquisite Leaf Bowls

Kay Sekimachi, a master of fibre arts, is renowned for her exquisite leaf bowls. These delicate sculptures transform the skeletal remains of big leaf maple leaves into refined artistic expressions. The process is a testament to patience, involving the careful application of softened leaves onto a molded paper form, often enhanced with subtle watercolor washes. This meticulous work elevates a humble, natural material into a profound piece of art.

The bowls are celebrated for their intricate delicacy and their ability to honour the fleeting beauty and fragility of the natural world, solidifying Sekimachi's legacy as an artist who finds deep significance in the simplest of elements.
