Kyujutsu

This series of works are all inspired by the martial art of Kyujutsu (Japanese battlefield archery).

Inspired by a paper target peppered with holes left by arrows, these works are all unique in layout. The energy of the arrows is transformed into delicate patterns of leaves and flowers.

The title denotes the type of pieces used (Cherry blossoms - Sakura, Ginkgo leaves - Ichou, Maple - Kaede, Chrysanthemums -Kiku and the feathers on the arrow - Hane) and the number of arrows (Ya) represented
