PROFILE

松下裕恵：貼り切絵、絵画

京都市立芸術大学美術学部日本画科卒業。主に典具帖紙という、カゲロウの羽に例えられる世界一薄い色和紙を、切る、貼り重ねる、ちぎるなどを繰り返して、色の混色、形の表現をしている。最近は、和紙の光、色ともに透過性の高さを利用した作品の制作もしている。

STATEMENT

私にとって作品とは貼切絵について和紙を切って貼り重ねる技法を、色々自分で工夫し、貼切絵と名付けました。

カッターで、紙を切り抜き、その上下へ様々な厚み、色、質感の紙を切ったり手でちぎったりしながら貼り重ねています。重ねるばかりではなく、一度貼った紙を削り取ったり、切り抜いたり、ピンセットでちぎったりもします。作品によって制作工程は少しずつ異なり、また和紙を自分で染めたり、揉んだり、その都度工夫をしていきます。

基本的には、市販の染紙を使いますが、欲しい色が無い場合は自分で染めることもします。 薄い紙を貼り重ねると、思いがけない重厚感や色彩が生れます。

PROFILE

Hiroe Matsushita: Harikiri-e and Painting

Hiroe Matsushita graduated from the Department of Japanese Painting at Kyoto City University of Arts.

She primarily works with tengujo-shi, a type of colored Japanese washi so thin and delicate that it is often compared to the wings of a mayfly. By repeatedly cutting, layering, and tearing the paper, she creates subtle mixtures of color and explores the expression of form. More recently, she has also been creating works that take advantage of the exceptional translucency of washi, exploring the interplay of light and color as they pass through the delicate layers of paper.

What My Work Means to Me
About Harikiri-e

I developed my own technique of cutting and layering Japanese washi paper, which I call Harikiri-e.

I use a cutter to cut out shapes in the paper, then layer different types of paper above and below them. I work with papers of various thicknesses, colors, and textures, cutting some pieces with a knife and tearing others by hand.

The process is not simply about layering paper. I may also scrape away or cut into paper that has already been attached, or tear away tiny pieces with tweezers. Each work has its own slightly different process, and I continually experiment with the materials—dyeing, crumpling, and manipulating the washi in different ways as I work.

I mainly use commercially dyed washi, but when I cannot find the color I want, I dye the paper myself.

By layering thin sheets of paper, unexpected depth, richness, and subtle variations of color emerge. These discoveries are an important part of the creative process for me.
