Washi Tales

There's a brilliant piece on the making of Washi Paper over at the Upon a Fold blog right now. Fascinating stuff, if you're into process. This from the site:

"Recycling: washi tales is a performance based project that explores the aesthetic and spiritual values of recycling paper. I came across this site via the always inspiring Awagami Factory, and it really blew me away. I have always wanted to see how washi paper is made and now I have, thanks to the team behind this production.Four tales of paper making from different periods of Japanese history unfold on stage, alongside a magical set created by renowned paper artist, Kyoko Ibe."
