| “Fabric and Clothing” Special Feature Text from gallery hakuden: We invited individuals with deep knowledge of fabric and clothing to contribute essays from their unique perspectives. Each approach to fabric and clothing feels like a guiding principle for the craft of making things. The cover's fabric expression is a woodblock print by Yoshitaka Wakasa. Three-color, iridescent letterpress printing. The plump texture of Wakasa washi paper makes this a gentle volume to hold.
