The Art of Japanese Obi, Woven Textiles

From the Japanese textile collection of Deymian LeSar, these fabulous woven silk textiles are each a work of art.  The designs range from intricate landscape designs to large floral and bird patterns to geometric shapes.  An obi is either a narrow or a wide sash that is traditionally worn with kimono.  The designs and colors of obi are specific to the kimono as well as the season in which the kimono and obi are to be worn.  Vintage and antique obi are hand-loomed, the most famous being from the Nishijin area of Kyoto, Japan.  Sponsored by the Friends of the Deming Libary. On display February 27 through April 6.
