Christine Druitt-Preston: Wrapped, 2025 Stitched Washi and Wenzhou paper garment with obi on metal rail Image Size: 160x150x5cm. Photographer: Hi Res Digital Combining printmaking, stitching and found materials, this in artwork plays with the notion of a garment as a body wrapping. Salvaged Tatoushi, the stringed Washi paper used traditionally to wrap Kimonos has been appliqued with hand stitched Lino block print motifs, then cut and sewn into a form that references the Japanese wrapped-front, lined Kimono garment with Obi, or sash, it once held safe.
