Messages from Tokyo
Mixed Media Participatory Installation: 1200 sheets of paper made in Tokyo and dyed individually by the artist, waxed thread, Mizuhiki cord, participants responses to personal questions about Tokyo.
About
This installation took place at Wandering, Mapping, MOT (Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo), Tokyo, Japan.
Participants chose a color of paper from a full spectrum. They then respond to one of six personal questions about Tokyo and their relationship to it and hang it from the mizuhiki cord.
Mizuhiki cord is used as a traditional craft material in Japan, but also specifically in wrapping presents for certain special occaisions. The size of the paper is similar to a notecard one might mail to a friend.
