by Yuh Okano
Chestertown, MD
Sumptuous double-layered organza is transformed into an ethereal masterpiece. Okano paints the fabric with imprecise strokes, imbuing each romantic piece with fluid movement and energy.
Yuh Okano is a textile artist whose pieces are inspired by a deep fascination with the natural world. Her work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art and is in its permanent collection. Yuh's pieces are invitingly tactile. They employ a range of color and texture that strives to be as subtle and finely detailed as the organic forms her works suggest.
