Paper Collage Art with Lily Motif
Chigiri-e is a traditional Japanese art form where hand-torn colored paper is used to create artwork
As Chigiru means to tear or shred and e means picture, Chigiri-e translates as painting with paper
Tearing the paper by hand creates soft feathery edges allowing the colours to blend well
The torn pieces are glued onto a backing and layered to build depth, shadows and dimension
The backing used is often a Shikishi, a traditional board made of high-quality washi paper mounted onto a rigid backing
This Chigiri-e has been made on a Shikishi and features realistic-looking lilies on a blue striped background
Artist’s stamp on front and dated 20 May, 2001 on back
