Kinusaiga Art

Kinusaiga is a contemporary Japanese art form that has evolved from combining elements of traditional textile techniques with modern materials and methods. It begins with a 2-dimensional design cut into a foam board base, and then creating a colorful mosaic using fabric scraps. This innovation was attributed to artist Maeno Takashi, allowing for more versatile creations, and has made this art form very popular for both amateur and professional artists. 

And most certainly those that love expressing a little whimsy with all the beautiful colors and textures to be had....
