Suminagashi Marbled Papers

Suminagashi is 12th-century Japanese marbling: ink floated on still water, nudged into rings, then lifted onto paper in a single pass. The water does most of the work, which is why no two prints repeat. This template renders that fluid unpredictability, down to the feathered edges where colours meet. One fixed technique and view hold all nine versions together. Three short keywords change the piece: the palette, the pattern, and the paper. For endpapers, packaging and textiles.
