About the event
Marvelous Marbled Mushies Workshop with Emma James-Ries from Turned & Burned Aotearoa
Discover Suminagashi (墨流し), the ancient Japanese technique of decorating with inks. It is believed to be the oldest form of marbling, originating in China over 2,000 years ago and practiced in Japan by Shinto priests as early as the 12th century. Suminagashi (sue-me-NAH-gah-she), which literally means “ink-floating” involves doing just that.
