Meet the Makers
Since 2004 katazome artists Matsuyama Takeshi and Takai Chie produce dyed fabrics by stencil dyeing, dip-dyeing, and printing, and have exhibited their works at many exhibitions and group shows. Their tenugui hand towels and other miscellaneous goods are sold at general merchandise stores in Japan and abroad, and have gained popularity. Katazome is a Japanese method of dyeing fabrics using a resist paste applied through a stencil, typically a rice flour mixture applied with a brush or a tool such as a palette knife.
