Suminagashi Workshop

20 Nov, 5:30 PM
Semente Atelier Cafetaria (Coimbra, Central)

5 €

Suminagashi is the Japanese technique of marbling paper. Literally, the word means ‘floating ink’. Twisted and undulating patterns, such as those found in marble stones, can be created by pouring ink onto a surface covered with water and then placing sumi-e paper or fabric on top to pick up the ink.

In this workshop, participants are invited to explore this technique – originally practised by Japanese monks – to create floating patterns on the water and produce monotypes.

Maria Sassetti is running a suminagashi workshop and presenting the catalogue for the ‘Cura de Sol’ exhibition at Semente Atelier & Cafetaria.
